I need to find an FTP program which supposedly is on my
computer. I have a new Dell Dimension with Windows XP
Professional. Can anyone help me find the FTP? Thanks.

Click to expand...

start > run > ftp
 
Open a command prompt, type ftp <enter>
type ? <enter>
This will show you the commands that ftp can use

To open a site use
open sitename
eg. open ftp.microsoft.com
to view files and folders use dir or ls
to download files use get filename
to upload files use put filename

It may be easier to get a graphical FTP program, there are many free ones
available.
