Cute FTP Home is a File Transfer Protocol (FTP) client that is used to transfer files between your computer and File Transfer Protocol (FTP) servers.
Whether you are publishing a Web page, downloading the latest digital images, music, or software, or if you are just transferring large files between your home and office, CuteFTP Home gets the job done every time.
Cute FTP Home is used to transfer files of any size and/or type, including Web pages, multi-media files, or other documents to and from a file transfer server over FTP, the standard for moving files across the Internet.
Cute FTP Home assures efficient, reliable, secure connections and transfers over FTP (FTP over SSL/TLS). Typical uses include:
￭ Upload your web pages to your ISP's FTP Server for viewing in a web browser
￭ Upload work files to an FTP server.
￭ Upload your auction images to an FTP Server
￭ Upload or download multimedia files such as music, images or video files
￭ Download the latest game patches, programs or game demos from participating FTP servers
￭ Download large files faster than when using your Web browser
￭ Backup critical files to an FTP server in case your system crashes
Cute FTP Home is similar to a web browser. You enter an "FTP" address instead of an "HTTP" address and it transfers files instead of opening them. Additionally, it lets you change filenames, delete files or folders, or edit a remote document using its internal editor.
