Overwriting Files
It is the responsibility of the client application (Windows Explorer, FlashFXP, etc) to ask the user if they want to overwrite a file.
Note that some types of files (such as .mov and Targa) change their file extensions when they have been transferred into the server. In these cases, the FTP client cannot warn of a file overwrite. It is important to take extra care when using these types of files not to overwrite necessary files.
