FTP Explorer is a 32-bit FTP application that is extremely simple to operate, and makes moving files between the Internet and your computer as simple as local file manipulation.

Several features of FTP Explorer make it stand head and shoulders above most other FTP programs that are currently available.

Background transfers

FTP Explorer handles all file transfer requests in the background, so you don't have to wait while files copy to continue browsing the current server.

You can even connect to a different server, and the program will automatically log off of the original server once the requested transfer has completed.

Auto-retry

Resume broken transfers

This can save you time and connection costs for those troublesome connections. (Note: not all FTP servers support this option).

File descriptions

FTP Explorer can automatically download and display the proper description of each file with the file that it describes. As an option, the program will automatically download the index file on the server and display the file descriptions next to the appropriate files while you browse.

Several standard index file formats are currently supported.

Transfer Manager

The source, destination, and status of each request is detailed in the Transfer Manager window to keep you apprised of multiple connections, and make it easy to see which files have been transferred.

Intelligent queuing

Once connected to a server, FTP Explorer maintains a list of commands to carry out which makes listing files and searching the server much faster.

Select the directories that you want to browse as soon as you connect, and FTP Explorer will go to work downloading the directory information and listing its contents in the background while you continue to browse.
