Many people seem to recommend Bulletproof FTP as a good ftp program, however
when I tried it it halted with a larger download. Might be my/my computer's
fault, but I'd rather recommend SecureFX by Vandyke, www.vandyke.com, does
recursive ftp listings, has a "synchronize" option for making backups/keeping
your files current and supports ftp over SSH2. Very reliable software.

The only drawback is that you need to register before downloading it, and it
is free for 30 days only, then you have to purchase it. But I am very happy,
as I am also a very happy user of Vandyke's SecureCRT telnet/ssh program.

Best of all Vandyke's tech support is in my opinion second to none, they
always reply, they note what you are wishing, and if the wish is deemed a good
idea they will incorporate changes in future versions. All this unpaid
advertisement from a happy customer!
