Anyone looking for a replacement for SmartFTP where the greedy bastards have started charging for their free product of over 10 years, should try FileZilla, an open source and free ftp client (they also do a free server too).

The link is http://filezilla-project.org/download.php?type=client

Well done guys – you certainly should get some more people downloading now, as I can’t see anyone paying for SmartFTP with a search of Google for an alternative!

SmartFTP, the FTP client software house has got greedy and released another update forcing everyone to pay for the use of the product within 10 days. This greed has occurred after they have provided the same product for free for over 10 years, and have continually provided ‘not needed’ updates like Microsoft that cause frustration, and eat up bandwidth on pay per use internet connections.

Well, I say “Fuck you SmartFTP”. If you had the slightest bit of common sense you would realize that your market is web designers; all of which have the brains both to write their own FTP client, use a dos prompt or use Dreamweaver’s internal FTP component.

SmartFTP may have just made themselves history.
