I have to agree with Philip, The windows users here in my office love AbsoluteFTP. It has a simple drag and drop windows and handles multiple accounts in an easy top use manager. The few times I used it myself were easy enough. Seems to handle connections very well and it is able to go in to passive, something I think I remember about native ftp on windows boxes not being able to do.
