I used to use WS a long time ago but I've been using CuteFTP for years now. And yeah I'm using a version that I paid for.

Ah, darling, you and I are both so damned old school!

If it ain't broke...don't fix it.

I use SmartFTP client... the free version. Nothing fancy.. But I don't need it for anything fancy anyways.

I've tried them all out in the name of desktop support, and webmaster support later on. I've used ftp directly from the command line since forever (both on DOS and Unix), so nothing phases me with these clients. I got a licesnse for CuteFTP and keep it around. I recently tried the FireFTP extension for Firefox, and was impressed. it's easy to navigate, keeps a server list, and has advanced functions, like doing directory diffs, so that you can save bandwidth by only updating files or uploading files that are different, etc.
Most good programmer's editors have a built-in FTP function that's nice to have. You can make changes and upload it with a keystroke or two, without opening another app....

I use good old WS_FTP Lite for moving big chunks of content around, and the built-in FTP feature of Dreamweaver for upping web pages - saves a lot of hassle.

I used to use bulletproof and liked it, but then i switched to a paid program (cough) and stupidly bought cuteftp. I don't like it because there always seems to be a lag between clicking on directories and them opening up, even on the local drive.
