FTP Clients and Vista

Could anyone recommend a FTP client that will work with Vista please?

I have tried the trial version of Smart FTP but there are known issues.


Cheers.

What issues are they? I've got SmartFTP running on my Vista 64 box at home and I've not had any problems yet!

CuteFTP is the only other "free" one I use - it's a bit of a pain in the backside at times, though.

This is my problem.

I've been through it step by step, and it still didn't work.
I must say also, I felt really uneasy messing with these things on my PC.
Way above my head. I was just expecting the PC to never work again.

How come we work for the same company (or used to), but you get the useful training and i get some stuff about how accepting an apple pie from a client can represent a conflict of interests?
