    n00b!! (sorry, I just felt like doing that)

    FTP is just like HTTP, it's just a different section of the internet.

    for hosting, FTP makes it esier to upload IPB, or any other forum. it allows you to upload multiple files at once.

    FTP servers are generally used for warez, but not all of them. They can do this only because the government can not say what is on your FTP, there's like a bill that was passed or something...
