How to use FTP in vb.net

I am fairly new to VB.net. I was wondering if there is any classes already
defined within the .net framework that will let me move some of my files
dynamically to an FTP server.

I want my .net application to keep checking a particular folder on a Windows
server and everytime there is a new file in that folder i want my application
to FTP this file to a given FTP server.

any links to code snippets will be much appreciated.
