I use CuteFTP too.  The option to edit an online file is nice (it
downloads to a temp file and when you save it, it uploads it) and it
does all of the simple tasks that I do.  It has some advanced stuff but
I never really use any of them.

I have a REAL problem with WS FTP - if you select a large number of
files in a folder, that little "transferring" popup takes focus from
whatever you're doing

So, if you start to download a block of large files, then switch and
start typing, you can hit "space" on the cancel button by accident as it
pops up and takes focus from what you're working on

Any program which has "greedy" focus is NOT user friendly in my opinion

I recently got the latest version of CuteFTP - the queue and right click
integration are great, and the re-connect is helpful if you're using
wireless and it "blips"
