QuestLeader Member Posts: 629 From: My house, Va, USA Registered: 04-20-2005	Im using SmartFTP and it just says that the transfer failed every time i try to transfer the files over. It will work with everything exept the file type that all of the phbb things are. ------------------

Or to auto if possible. ------------------ It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise, than for a man to hear the song of fools. - Ecc 7:5
