Agreed - this has happened to me several times.  Fortunately, I use VSS

Subject: Re: CFE FTP - What am I missing?

Good point... I am almost exclusively using that working with a
development server, then doing wholesale moves.  I have had a number of
"OH @$*#!!!" moments where Homesite dies in the middle of a save and I
am left with a forced kill of homesite.exe and an 0 byte file on the
server!  That alone keeps me from using that method in production.
