Hi everybody,
To upload files to my website I use FTP client and have no problem. But I really don't know how to download apps using FTP client (WS_FTP or LeechFTP). I have tried to log in (as anonymous) to the some download sites such as www.download.com (ftp.download.com) and ftp.netscape.com ,but I just see some folders and I can't find any apps. Can you tell me how to download using FTP client? I do not want using download manager such as Go!zilla or Download Accelarator because they consist of spywares.

If you don't see any they are not there. If you do see them you drag the file to a directory in your machine. The Host (server) appears in the righe pane and the client (you) appear in the left.
