Is there a built in FTP client in Vista OS?
I had used Filezilla int he past but I'm wondering if there is a built in FTP client in the Vista OS and if it is worth using? All I need to do is upload files to my webhost. Thanks.
You can also ftp from explorer. Right the start ball and click explore, click in the address area delete everything and put ftp://blah.com
from command line (run cmd) you can use the ftp client to upload or download files

OK. I know this should be really simple but how do I set this up? My only real experience is with Filezilla and there was an interface screen where I had to enter the web address, password, etc. and then it was simple click and drag. I assume this will work the same way once I get it setup.

I tried this but kept getting the following message:
"Windows cannot access this folder. Make sure you typed the file name correctly and that you have permission to access this folder.
Details:
The server name or address could not be resolved."
I was never prompted for credentials.
I'll go with filezilla. I thought that going with something inside Windows would keep it simple and be one less piece of software to install and update.
