Running on windows? Spending money?

Windows - money:
WS_FTP Pro Server
WFTPD - Windows FTP Server

Windows - no money:
Cerebus
Cesar
WAR FTP Daemon

The pricey ones are significanly better, (and, yes, obviously, significantly
more expensive)

If you are running *n*x operating system, I would recommend using scp over
ssh. Same functionality as ftp, but encypted. There are windows clients for
this (WinSCP), I don't know about servers...
Personally recommend this as your number 1 option. 

Most of the UNIX ftp clients are quite good too.. 

take your pick...
good, fast, cheap...
