Need vb.net 2003/2005 control for ftp client

HI!
(I originally posted this in the wrong group...)

I have been looking for an easy to use control (or code) that works in VB2003 and VB2005
and will allow me to program an automated ftp process into my application.

I have been 'googleing' and have not found any that are under $200.. Most are expecting
you to use a full client but I do not need (or want) thet.

Does anyone know of an inexpensive component that I could purchase?

The Ftp portion of the program is just a small part of the overall program and I just want to
focus more attention to the main application rather than this module.

I need an ftp component with easy to use calls. Sonething like:
ftp.connect("ftp.websiteName.com")
ftp.LoginInfo("username","Password")
ftp.PortNumber(21)
msgbox(ftp.lastresponse) 'show last response as "250 connected" or whatever the codes are.
This is pretty much what I am looking for... The Xceed components are way too complex for
what I want to do, and very expensive to boot. I've tried to understand the Microsoft KB article
but to no avail.

Dont' know if this is what you're looking for, but you could probably add
what you need to this:
