Using the FTP protocol, you can transfer files from remote servers to your computer, or even to another remote server. It makes it easy to update your Web site, download files from the company server, or even download files from the internet that always seem to fail using your Web browser. It allows you to transfer files between two sites (FXP), resume incomplete downloads, synchronize directories, schedule multiple tasks, and more.

    I don't know what you saw using Process Monitor and Process Explorer (not exactly the best tools for this job), but I just ran FlashFXP with Wireshark and there was no phoning-home, with the exception of the automatic update process (which I have set on).

    Completely unfounded claims. Proof?

    Personally I use Filezilla since it's free, but FlashFXP is great as well.

    @thezelda:

    FlashFXP doesn't "call home" so please stop spreading this kind of BS (seven years of trolling is beyond BS). Do you really think that all of us are stupid and can't see how safe or unsafe is a program we use?

    In simple words, next time prove your claims or kindly shut up!

    Sorry to other folks, but I'm tired of reading nonsense comments by ignorant people who don't know anything about what they're talking.

    Program calls home and submits encrypted data back to the OpenSight server. The size of the call-home is rather sizeable, and based on what I've seen using PROCMON and PROCEXP (microsoft system monitoring utilities), the program before it calls home is collecting a lot of data and then sending a sizeable payload.

    I'm curious, and a little naive.
    Could everyone please post what they are using FTP programs for.
    I'm curious on how it could benefit the home user.
    Thanks everyone (anyone)
