An FTP client with an innovative messenger-like interface, including easily customizable default local folder for each site or as the program calls it "data source" - these two features alone are worth giving Bitkinex a fair shot. 2.4 has provided a variety of quality updates, making this a great everyday use client for webmasters and those logging into many different sites on an ongoing basis. I use Bitkinex daily, and although the basic ftp features are similar to the rest of the offerings in this category, what sets it far apart in my mind is the ability to open multiple data sources, perform fxp transfers(server to server transfers) and the intuitive messenger style site manager interface that is familiar to any MSN, Yahoo, or AOL messenger user. One small setback, that causes me to open Filezilla from time to time is that the CHMOD only supports single file editing (hopefully we'll see this resolved in the new version).

Thought this would be a good program. I however had trouble using it. I have used many FTP Programs and found that most work about the same. This one however gave me problems transferring files in some cases. Just find one you are most comfortable with and keep it. I happen to like Blaze FTP the best.
