Another excellent program to try is CuteFTP.  It also allows you to
resume downloads as well as other features.  I personnally prefer it
to WS-FTP.  You can get a review of both at:

Download both clients and try them out.  Register the one you prefer
(you only get the advanced features with the registered program).
