Secure FTP for Windows?

I'm sure a few of you out there must be running windows servers...

What do you use for Secure FTP? IIS has vanilla FTP, which sends clear text userids and passwords -- no good. So, I need a third-party FTP solution I can roll out for my customers. Something that's as easy to use as FTP, but more secure.

So, what do you all use?

I've played with WFTPD a bit, but I'm not sold on it yet. Is there something else I should look at?

http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/ Filezilla has my vote, it supports SSH and SSL for the server. It works quite well and it's free.

Huh. I looked at Filezilla, but I didn't get the sense that the Server component was quite "ready for prime time."

Are you running it on your corporate server?

Well, I downloaded and installed Filezilla last night. Looks like a nice server, but the sercurity is more involved that I'm looking for. You need the Windows Cerberus stuff installed, and that's too much to ask of 99% of my client base. I need something that will allow them to use one of the popular FTP programs (FTP Voyager, Cute FTP, etc.) without having to do anything else to their PC.

What about RaidenFTPD? Has anyone ever used that? It looks to have a lot of the features I want...
