I used to host with Interland, which is now web.com. They just sent me an email telling me my monthly Windows hosting plan monthly price would double because FrontPage extensions are end-of-life on Linux. Thus I needed to download everything via FTP, because FrontPage will always choke before it completes. Windows GUI FTP clients are no longer free -- and they also choke before finishing 300 MB and thousands of files. (I checked and ChiliSoft ASP isn't supported/sold by Sun anymore, either.)

wget -r ftp://userxxx:password@ftp.mysite.com

Who knew wget could use ftp and be recursive?
