Alex Kwok has been gracious enough to provide a free component for handling FTP transfers — because the current implementation of .NET has a mysterious hole where this functionality should be. This FTP client appears to have all the basic functionality you’d expect, such as uploading and downloading files, listing directories, and deleting and renaming files. A healthy dose of sample code is also available.

GotDotNet.com provides another great example of an FTP client component. It allows you to upload, download, manage directories, and perform most other basic file operations. The VB.NET source code is freely available and well written. Sample code for using the control is also included in the download. An online forum lists many discussion topics about the component in case you’d like to learn more about the inner workings and how to extend it.
