OS - WindowsXP Pro


If you are running windows xp open up Windows Explorer (your file manager)

Go to Tools ==> Map Network Drive

Click the ' Sign up for online storage or connect to a network server'
hypertext at the bottom.

Click Next, Click Next

Fill in the ftp internet address ftp:// whatever (ftp://ftp.microsoft.com
for example)

Click next

Either leave the Log on anonymously box ticked or put in you login details,
click Next

Give it a name reference

Click Next, Finish


The ftp site now appears in your file subdirectory list in My Network Places

You can now drag and drop files/bunches of files until your hearts content,
treating the site as an extension of your hard drive.
