This should be a challenge...good FTP program OTHER than BPFTP or CuteFTP. Simply because BpFTP does very WEIRD things to my computer and I don't like Cute. So anyone know of another good FTP program?

I use one called AbsoluteFTP by VanDyke Software. Very clean interface. To transfer I just drag and drop. Looks just like Windows Explorer (Dunno if thats a good thing:)).

I love BulletProof, I think it's the best out there. But on one of my computers, after about 5 minutes of active, inactive or idle usage while connected to an FTP site it reboots my computer. BLAM (you know, like Batman, smack, karzooie, smack) it just shuts down. Extremely weird. And Cute FTP doesn't do that...but I don't like CuteFTP. So now you see my predicament. :)

That sucks. I agree, something isn't right about CuteFTP. Other than bulletproof and cute, I have only used WS-FTP and also FlashFXP for FTP to FTP transfers. you're gonna be hard pressed to find something to match BP :)

Actually, this is no challenge at all...FlashFXP all the way! i believe this is easily the best ftp client.

I wouldn't consider cuteftp a good ftp program to begin with. WSFTP, the pioneer of ftp programs, is the best.

Another vote for FTP Explorer, simple, dependable, free. All the best things in life. :)

Surprised to see no support for WS_FTP Pro. I have used this program nearly every day for the last three years. I'm still using the version released in 1996, too. Just goes to show that upgrades to good applications aren't always necessary.
