Module 1: CAPITALIZATION MATTERS! (FTP)

Yes thats right it does matter! haha. Okay so how did i come to this conclusion... Well first i decided that instead of downloading and installing filezilla i would just simply type ftp://recall.curtin.edu.au into my firefox browser. To my surpise this worked! I then continued to search through folders and subfolders until i found the readme.txt. I eventually found the file in: ftp://recall.curtin.edu.au/../../../Anonymous/MSC/readme.txt.

Ok so the way i see it... This ftp system is pretty much like using your own computer where you have a C drive and then a lot of subfolders within that. However with this system your in someone elses computer and are able to access specific files and folders. This seems rather limited and i know from experience that these servers tend to be slower than downloading directly.
