One of the easiest ftp server programs is Serv-U, which can be found here.

You can also use Microsoft FTP Service, which i think is on the Windows CD.
If you have Windows NT/Win2k, you can use Internet Information Server (IIS) to host a web site or ftp site. IIS is built into it.

I just started checking out WarFTP and Guild FTP servers. They're worth looking into!

WarFTP is way better than serv-U. Serv-U has a couple of vulnerablities, so if you use it, dont create an admin account for remote access. War has a steeper learning curve, but is deifnitely worth the time...
