FTP It
FTP It is a full-featured FTP client allowing you to log on to remote FTP servers to upload or download files. Because it is integrated with the file manager you have support for drag and drop or copy and paste file transfers.

Zipster and Cabaret
These two applets allow you to manage zip and cab files. Compress a single file or several folders to clean up clutter or get files ready for email. Both Zipster and Cabaret allow you to have several files open at once. They allow drag and drop or copy and paste file compression or extraction. Control Freak also comes with a small zip and cab file utility called Zippy for use with Windows Explorer and My Computer. You can add menus to Explorer's context menus so Zippy becomes integrated with Windows Explorer for expanded zip and cab file management.

Lost & Found
Not only is Lost & Found a powerful file finder but the Lost & Found window can be used as holding area for an unrelated group of files you want to perform a common task on. You can drag and drop or copy and paste files into the Lost & Found window. Once there you can perform any normal file management duties on the files.
