Yeah - thats the only one I have left to try considering
I dont want to pay for CuteFTP.

Now all I have to do is find out what the original dir's were called so I
can rename them to what they were!
Seeing as I had a similar issue with an old host and a rename sorted it -
oooh looks like I am gonna have fun going through DIR tree's again :(
