Probably the easiest to use would be the one built into whatever you use to design your web pages. Most have FTP functionality built in.
Otherwise, there are loads of FTP clients out there. WS_FTP is widely used. Google for WS_FTP Lite for the free version
Or you can even use Internet Explorer. Just type ftp:// followed by the FTP address0 -
I use AceFTP http://www.download.com/AceFTP/3000-2160_4-10073376.html easy to use drag & drop system - does what it's supposed to do.0

FileZilla. It's got all the functionality you'll need. It's light, stable, and completely free. I use it at home and work.
If you use Firefox, there's an extension to turn it into a simple ftp client. I still prefer FileZilla though."Boonowa tweepi, ha, ha."0 -
I use FTP surfer and find it brilliant. It is freeware. I tried a couple of others first but found this one simple to use.

Another vote for filezilla here, been using it for a long while now and had no problems - find it light and easy to use.Ever stop to think and forget to start again?0

Filezilla - Best - go for that one - http://sourceforge.net/projects/filezilla/
WS_FTP - good (I have WS_FTP95)0 -
No real need for another one, but I like ftp Commander:
