although in general i prefer FlashFXP as i think it's overall features and interface is pretty much perfect
(For me.)
FlashFXP ain't freeware iirc? So it's a bad comparison. :/

yeah your right FlashFXP aint free... but it's my ftp client of choice... for free stuff overall FileZilla is pretty good.
basically besides the filezilla lacking the site to site transfers and secure transfers etc... i think main thing i miss is 'sort by' which FlashFXP has.... like sort by date/size etc when right clicking.
plus i think it's basic interface is perfect in flashfxp.
but for those who just casually use FTP stuff... in 'most cases' FileZilla will be 'good enough'
