FTP Client

Just wanted to know I really appreciate the help I have been getting during this time setting up FTP. I figure since I will be messing with this for awhile for clients and myself that I will begin to use a FTP client. I am going to poke around, but for those that already know the answer to this, what is the best or most preferred FTP client?

***Update***
Seems to me that SmartFTP client is a fine tool. Any other suggestions I am all ears.

P.S.
It's been awhile since I got to learn something new; I forgot how much fun this is.

FileZilla is a good freebie. I use Bulletproof, but it's not free.

Here is our review of FileZilla: http://www.pcmech.com/show/opensource/692/

I also checked out CoreFTP: http://www.pcmech.com/show/opensource/892/ It is another option.

A fourth vote for Filezilla here. Takes a bit of time (0.5-1 hour) for the FTP Newbie to wrap his head around it, but keep at it! It's very straightforward and intuitive after you get the hang of it.

I either use WS_FTP lite, which has vanished or the command line. I never could warm up to FileZilla.

WS-FTP LE is an old standby, but it's showing its age. It does not support resume.
