    I'd second this. I used to use SmartFTP but since WinSCP is far simpler and lets me scp into my linux boxes too.

    Filezilla is good too, maybe superior in some ways, but I find WinSCP works better with external editors -- i.e. updating remote files when I hit 'save' in my editor of choice -- and I find that to be a fairly important feature.

    I use Fillzilla (MAC/Windows/Linux) but I also install the FireFTP plugin for Firefox.

    I use CuteFTP Pro. It's only about 45 Europes and I quite like it.

    LeechFTP is nice and simple. I always seem to fall back to it.

    Norton claimed it was a virus the last time I used it. I liked it as it was easy to use.
