If you have a website, then it's likely that you've transferred files from a personal computer onto our FTP server. What FTP client software do you use and why?

SFTP is an entirely different protocol to FTP. http://en.wikipedia.or...er_Protocol and being encrypted it's much slower.
VPS Tip: (I'm using the new environment) If you want SFTP to work with a chrooted shell in Plesk then you'll need to edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config and remove "openssh/" from "Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server" then sighup the sshd system process.
Another tip is to ssh and then use curl(1) http://curl.haxx.se/ Great if you want to download and install an application quickly without using your own machine as an intermediary. You can also pull stuff from your domain using curl running on your machine; this of course requires some familiarity with the terminal.
