I have been trying to delete a folder with 13500 files in it located on my server. I have been trying to delete this folder for months now but every time I try using either Interarchy or Transmit the application crashes or I get an error. Today, I downloaded the new version of Fetch. Fetch was the only FTP application that could delete the folder and files.

Fetch Rules!

Fetch ReviewONLY FTP TO UPLOAD 5,000 FILES WITHOUT A HITCH - Version: 5.2, 5/7/2007 10:08AM PST

I've tried 'em all, from the free to fancy and every one but Fetch craps out when trying to upload a large site, say 30 folders with 100 files in each.

I run this test about every 6-12 months to see if there is one I like better, and actually works. Although Fetch's interface is not pretty it gets the job done.

For simple uploading most FTP clients work fine but for hard work nothing has yet to touch Fetch. Sorry Charlie.
