5. Password: Use your password to the above account.
6. Account: Leave Blank.

You can now check the Save Password box if you like, and click the OK button to connect you with the server. You will now be presented with a new, split screen. The left side will display the contents of your personal computer, and the right side will display the contents of your directory on the FTP server.

In order to upload files, simply navigate to the directory on your home computer, using the ChgDir button on the left. Once you have found the files you would like to upload, you can highlight them and then click the arrow button in in the middle of the screen that points to the right. This is the upload button.
In the event you want to download a file from the server, you can hightlight the file on the right and click the arrow pointing to the left.
