    • Hi,

      I am a Micro$oft Windows Vista x64 Ultimate user and I am currently using SmartFTP (which is poo) and I was wondering if anyone can recommend a good FTP program.
      The problem I am having with SmartFTP is that whenever I try to upload a large number of files and folders, say of example Joomla! or vBulletin as these are the two only I upload which contain large number of files/folders. The upload procedure starts but 9 times out of 10 after a couple of minutes the upload stops and I have to mess around looking where it stopped and then start from there.

      So can anyone give me some suggestions please?

      Thanks
      Danny

    • SmartFTP has a Transfer Queue which will automatically resume interrupted downloads. Try using that instead of doing a direct transfer.
