JSM AutoFTP is a small program customers can use to
upload their files. It is a standard FTP client, except it's hard-wired
to our server, and it works via drag and drop. So you don't have to worry
about login, password, or directory information when uploading. To use
it, just drag the files onto the AutoFTP icon. It will automatically compress
files to protect them, and will notify us when the upload is complete.
