i couldn't use filezilla because there's an issue with using in windows server 2003 if the firewall is on. i know, right? i am not turning the firewall of so, i went looking, and my winscp - which i use for ssh - support ftp - and - synchronization! filezilla doesn't do that. the interface is easier and it saves connections settings faster. case closed. good bye filezilla - i hardly knew you... what ever.
