Is there a simple FTP client that runs without to be installed on Windows or even rebooting machine? Just a simple EXE which would do the job of usualy FTP clients. I know the FTP program from command line which is part of Windows, but that is too unfriendly, although it can do all tasks I need.

Actually, I know it, I use WS_FTP and it works fine, but when I am not with my machine, but on some customer's: I'd just like to put my CD into that machine, type D:\MyFtpClient.exe and that's it, when I finish there's nothing left behind me. Even worse if I work on machine that has some shared resources and I can't reboot since there are some workstations connected to it.

Do you get my point?

I once found an illegal copy of flash fxp and it was only one .EXE file and it worked, but I don't think I have it anymore.

EDIT: I just found it. :D

Well, that's what I do now but I'm sick of its unfriendly interface since I use some other products in normal conditions.
