Description
FireFTP is a FTP client that allows for downloading MP3 music, movies, and software by combining an interface with a versatile multithreaded file transfer engine. Downloads MP3 music, movies, and software. The application has a drag-and-drop interface and is multithreaded with up to 16 synchronous transfers. It has the ability to browse sites while downloading files and download from multiple servers at the same time. It has an original Napster type interface. The site manager stores frequently used sites, its anti-idle, and has port range limiting for port forwarding.
Review
While FireFTP can manage file transfers with some reliability, it doesn't stand up to other programs -even freeware- in terms of features. During testing, we were able to download and upload several files simultaneously to and from multiple FTP servers, yet if a connection was interrupted, FireFTP couldn't resume the transfer. The program also doesn't support secure protocols or allow you to schedule downloads/uploads. The standard interface, similar to many other file-transfer programs, is easy to use and intuitive. Overall, FireFTP needs more fuel to be a worthy file-transfer program option.
