Really neat, huh.  I don't have any other FTP client app.  I use it to even
update my default webpage provided by my ISP.

Same here, though I stuffed up the networking on my Win 8.1 PC.  I dunno how
and can't seem to fix it.  No hassles as all the other real and virtual PCs
are still able network sensibly.

I use a binkD mailer on it (configured as a point system), as a gate on what I
call a network of Stargates.  Every morning it catches 9/10ths of a gig of
backup files from three Fido nodes, that just magically appear at its
Stargate.  :)

Which reminds me: my Win 8.1 PC is a media source, automatically available to
my media player thingie but only as a DLNA-compatible source not via
networking.  Apparently Win 7.xx can easily be enabled as a media source
too... well, according to a how-to doc I saw on-line someplace.

Cheers,
Paul.
