The latest version of WS-FTP Pro, the all-time world's-greatest FTP client, is now available. Any browser will let you download a file from an FTP server, but if you deal with FTP sites frequently, WS-FTP Pro can streamline your work. The program integrates with your browser and launches automatically when you browse to an FTP site. If you're tired of multimegabyte downloads failing just before completion, WS-FTP Pro's download-resume feature will pick up the download right where it stopped. The utility tracks your FTP passwords and your default remote and local directory paths (see FIGURE 2). It even retries busy servers automatically. WS-FTP Pro 6.5 costs $US40 via web delivery. Download a 30-day demo version from Ipswitch Software's Web site at www.ipswitch.com/products/ws_ftp, or just get it off our cover CD.
