If you have a web site, you have to transfer pages to the server for display. Let's hope you're not using plain old FTP anymore: it's not secure -- everything you send (including your login password!) is transferred in the open. There are ways of doing file transfers securely, and WinSCP supports it -- not just the classic "SFTP" password protocol, but also using public keys and Kerberos. If you have a web site and have NO clue what any of that means, you're at risk. Best of all, WinSCP is open source: it's "free" (supported by donations).
