Rep Power: 5 | Rather than opening FTP, Why don't you use it and serve the internet community and earn credit for your work. Oh, yes!!, you can also earn money. |

Rep Power: 12 | Opening up ftp for everyone poses a huge security risk and thats the main reason no one allows it these days and more over it is almost impossible to generate any revenue by providing free ftp access... You might be able to find a site where you would have to pay a membership fee monthly or weekly or something like that but I doubt it that you would find a webmaster giving you free ftp access to download movies and music and stuff... Have you tried torrents? |

| Aditya | just try to understand the simple term ftp here which is file transfer protocol which is used to upload and download files, i suggest you to try torrents only to download music and movies coz i dont know any admin or site which provides access to ftp free of charge and apart from that if you are getting your purpose solved by torrents then why to go for any ftp, but if you just want to check what ftp is and how it works then you can go to ftp.microsoft.com from there you can download some useless microsoft games and applications. do you know how to add an ftp location on computer or not, please update if you need any help after this. i still suggest you to go for torrents and if you are not getting proper speed with torrents then try to change port or use torrents and port forwarding guide by just4kix that may help you to improve p2p speed |

| Platinum Member | Hi, I am here. I did read this thread. But admin and others had already put in their thoughts. To access an 'ftp' site, the ftp port (21) must be open on that site. Nowadays very few site admins open their website for ftp. And then the FTP server must be in DMZ to protect the rest of the infrastructure from worms and other hacking attempts. There are two download protocols - HTTP and FTP (well, three including P2P). It is a misconception to believe that FTP will give you better speeds. FTP pros:
HTTP pros:

| Platinum Member | Thanks. FTP is a protocol that was invented before HTTP. Because of its security risks (HTTP has them too), most admins now allow FTP via secure methods only (SFTP). SFTP port is 22. But even then security experts are still shy of allowing FTP (or SFTP). |
