We prefer to point our clients at a WebDAV server over an FTP server. 
There are fewer checkboxes to set wrong, it is better supported and 
more functional out-of-the-box on more OSs (the only saving grace of 
IE's built-in ftp client is that it is not the only FTP client out 
there), and there aren't unrelated protocols masquerading under the 
same name in the wild.

Our clients are less technical than your users. And maybe your cats. ;)
