Cool, I guess I'll grab this. I'm tired it reminding me that SmartFTP hasn't been updated in x days.

What is it good for and what does it do? Can you go to an ftp site and download with IE6? Why do you need to have an ftp client? Why are there ftp sites? Some people might like to know these things.

you can download from ftp sites with IE, but IE can get slow and unstable when browsing FTP sites. FTP sites are good because they are easy ways to host lots of big files without needing to make up web pages of links to the files.
the reason you might need an FTP client is they offer a lot more features and things than IE, which is super basic. the other thing is IE doesn't maintain your connection. some sites work on "ratios," where to download you first have to upload. if you use IE and it disconnects you after you upload, you lose your upload credits. you need a client so you can maintain a steady connection and not lose your credits.

Thanks for taking the time to explain that, thomsbrain. I want to download linux and was reading up on it thanks to some other generous advisors and noticed that I could see the downloads in explorer but they talked about an ftp client. The thing I hate about computers is that it can take me days to figure out something somebody could show me in a few minutes.

Definitely use an ftp program. You can queue up all the files (linux isos, etc) with a client, it will resume if needed (as long as the server supports resume), it's more stable, etc.

Nope, I just like their product. Nothing touches my heart like a good freeware app.
