If you are trying to be 1337, saying you are going to use Linux, then you SHOULD learn that the power of Linux (any Unix) is in the command prompt. Learn to use a command prompt. The command prompt is your friend ... ftp from Linux or Windows - its built into both, its sh*t easy to use. Just remember to set it to binary mode for file xfer and you'll be OK.
BTW - with all these double postings of yours ... click the edit button, and just re-edit the post (I think you have 10 minutes from when you originally do the posting). You don't need a new post per paragraph (unless you are post whoring).
