Thanks everyone. I got the files in briefcase, but it's new to me and I don't want to lose 'em. I can burn a CD, but my laptop doesn't have a burner. I also put the files in a directory called 'secret directory' just kidding, it was called 'gve5l39g'.
The problem with the last one though is that If I did that I can get a directory listing if I type in a directory I know. All I need is to be able to get the listing from the root.
I also saw a private dirtectory, but when I tried to get there, it asked me for a username/password and it's using a different one from what I use to FTP.
Briefcase will do if it'll keep them safely.
