Farewell To My Old Friend Smart FTP
Today I had to say farewell to Smart FTP because it’s no longer free to use and at this point in time I don’t feel like spending 40 bucks. I have been using it for about 10 years and have grown quite use to it even though I had to renew it every 30 days for me it was very user friendly and I can understand why they need to make money with it so I sadly say goodbye and wish you well, but I will probably buy you later.
I just downloaded the free CoffeeCup FTP and tried it and it’s quite different so I will check it out further and decide if I will be able to get use to it. I love free, but is that always the best? No, but with so many companies willing to furnish free products then why not try them that is if you have a good virus program that can get rid of all the malware and other backdoor Trojans before they infect your pc. Most times when those things are removed though the programs do not operate correctly.
I also use another free program which is great called Piriform CCleaner and every time I use my FireFox Browser I remove all cookies which I love. I normally use FF for certain things like dropping Ec’s because it normally always shows a blog the way it was intended to be viewed and I can always find the EC widgets unlike when I use IE and I just added the add on called “noscript” to FF so I’m anxious to see how it works when I go drop which I am going to do right now so have a good night.

It seems to be okay right now and years ago I used the other programs and they were okay also, but I shall see.
