Personally, I recommend the former, as it is less complicated. Launch a Command Prompt window from the Start menu and type the following command to connect to Mozilla’s FTP server: ftp Type anonymous at the login prompt, then leave the password field blank and press Enter. You will need to either install a web server program (not an ftp server program!) on the ftp server (the physical box) and let users download files using the http(s) protocol, or you will as SLaks suggested need to create your own proxy (or find one that exists) that will receive commands from the http protocol and transform them into the equivalent ftp commands, which are then sent to the ftp server. The default behavior in this case is to simply list the directory contents, which is pretty much what the ftp protocol does anyway. the pages themselves look similar because there is not actual page you are referencing (you are visiting the directory itself) and there is no default page specified in that directory (for example, no index.html). What is happening there is that '' is the domain name of that server. You appear to be getting confused by the second link because it still has ftp in it. for uploading files via FTP VirtualBox An easy-to-use virtualization tool. The links you have posted use two separate protocols. Free open-source browser Mozilla Firefox is a free web browser for Windows.

You might visit an FTP site to download free software for your business. To add some clarification: FTP and HTTP are, as SLaks said, two entirely different things. You can use Mozilla Firefox to connect to FTP sites as easily as you would browse your favorite websites.
