Date: 19 April 2001

Pro FTP has a rich set of features easy to use download and upload files with this simple program. You can copy either a directory or selected file from a remote host to your computer. There are so many features in ProFTP it's impossible to list them all.

ProFTP is a file transfer program which allows you to transfer files between your PC and a remote computer using the ARPANET standard File Transfer Protocol. The program can transfer files in two different format types: ASCII format is used for text files, and Binary format is used for image files.

FTP must run on a machine that is configured for TCP/IP network communication or Internet access. Access can be gained through Winsock and the use of any dial-up provider, a Remote Access Server (RAS), or a direct connection via a local area network that supports TCP/IP. In order for FTP to communicate with a remote computer, that computer must have a server implementation of FTP (FTP server based on TCP/IP transports).

You can be connected to only one remote computer at a time during a FTP session. However, you can run multiple FTP sessions (FTP clients) simultaneously in separate windows, with each session connected to a different host.
