Hi Thomas,
You are quite correct, and very clear thinking to me, as I see it. Just
as a for instance, ever since I got my new Windows 7 PC 18 months ago,
I've been struggling with Windows Live Mail, and last week, I decided to
go with Mozilla Thunderbird. Both are free, but Microsoft, being the
grand-daddy of software, had me believing I should trust them to take
care of me. So, I put up with their lousy interface while composing
e-mail messages, which drove me nuts because it never allowed me to
track my cursor reliably. Well, I finally kicked its butt out the door,
and I'm very happy with Thunderbird (which I'm using right this second).
I would even pay for Thunderbird if I had to, and although I'm tempted
to use Outlook, which I recently got in the Office Suite, I am not
really that interested in going there. I just hear so many problems with
Outlook, although, admittedly, many people swear by it, while other
certainly swear at it. Smile.
I really think it comes down to people believing that more is better,
and they assume that big-name software like Microsoft means more. I
don't know; I think Word, for example, is more complicated than it needs
to be. My mom came over yesterday to write a couple of letters, and I
didn't even know that an extra line of blank space was being inserted
automatically at the end of each formatted paragraph in the default
style, and I wouldn't have known since I'm blind. What's up with that?
Talk about dumb! But, once again, this is Microsoft trying to tell us
how we should be doing things. This reminds me of how they removed the
storage folders from the Program Files folder into virtual folders, so
now you have to chase around your whole hard drive to find out where the
heck the data you want to back up is located. Microsoft is great at
power-tripping and condescending care-taking. Smile.
Thomas, you are correct, my friend: go with what works, not with hipe!
Smile.
Take care,
Rod

But in the first place, when ftp voyager is fully accessible and when GW
Micro work with them and not sure if they are still known as rhinosoft, ftp
voyager itself is not free either.
And to me, its more expensive than other solution out there and its on the
yearly subscribsion.
I believe in quality of a products, is pay the developer to do those job.
someone is going to pay their bills, their time and their effort.

It's the whole free VS. paid concept. If I can get something that is
quality for free, then why wouldn't I talk to the developers of it in that
case?

If I understand what you are saying about ftp voyager, the 2 major corperate
function, schedule file sync and ftp pro, its already existed in flashfxp.
Give it a try, you will be surprise how well it work with window-eyes.
And the developers is constantly updating it and adding new function, every
week or 2.

FTP Voyager used to work beautifully, though now it totally fell down
accessibility wise, and I aim to poke the developers, for it has some
corporate features that could be important to some people such as audomatic
file syncronization that can be scheduled on a weekly, monthly, or daily
basis and also site profiles and such that the others don't have. And not
to mention it went free a few months ago.

You should be able to use File Zilla which is freeware and if doing a search
via Google you'll find several different places where it can be downloaded
from.
I like FTP Explorer, very easy to use and setup. This is a shareware program
and cost is around $35.00.
