    Funnily enough I'm about to try that with ws-ftp lite by Ipswitch.

    yes, it's called ftp.exe, and its already on your system :)

    Basically, go to a DOS prompt, and type ftp -?, and you'll see that one of the options is "ftp -s:file". Create a file that contains the commands you want to use and save it. Then all you need to do is to run ftp -s:file to do whatever you are trying to do, and if you want to schedule it you can write a batchfile that contains only the command "ftp -s:file", and use the windows scheduler to do it on a scheduled basis.

    Let me know if you are having troubles and I might be able to help a bit more.
