FireFTP is a lightweight FTP extension for Firefox. It adds basic FTP functionality directly in Firefox. You simply download and install it and from now on you can access a lightweight FTP client by clicking on Tools>FireFTP on the Firefox menu bar at the top of your Firefox browser. This opens in a new tab and has the familiar two-pane screen you’re probably familiar with.

It supports many of the features that you would expect to find in an FTP client, such as ability to choose between Binary, ASCII or automatic; ability to set File permissions, Drag and Drop, Remote editing, and more. It also supports SSL.

This is a pretty useful FTP add-on for Firefox that can easily handle basic FTP duties, so its worth checking out if you don’t want to go to the trouble of finding a stand-alone FTP client packed with features you’ll never need.

For the full list of features and to download it absolutely free, check out the FireFTP homepage here.
