Configuring Cute FTP
Software
Microsoft Frontpage Users
Customers with Microsoft Frontpage extensions installed on their sites should
use only the Frontpage publishing feature to transfer files. Using regular FTP
can corrupt the extensions, disabling the functionality of the Frontpage web and
requiring that the site be deleted to reinstall the extensions.
