furthermore - i am quite sure, you already have a totally free FTP client (actually - you even have two of them). first of all - explorer (and all the mozillas and operas) itselve is an ftp client, you only have to know how to feed all the needed data into them. in your case you should try to do the following - rightclick that link, choose "copy link location" or "copy shortcut" (depends on what SW you are using), then leftclick into addressbar, delete whatever is there, paste the link there (press ^v, Shift+Insert or through rightclick). now you will see there something like ftp://cool.domain.ru/directory1/directory2/moovie.avi. what you have to do - right after "ftp://" and before the hostname - write the username (in your case it's kanon), then colon, password and, finally, at (that snail-like letter you use in email adresses). i guess, it will look something like ftp://kanon:@cool.domain.ru/directory1/directory2/moovie.avi (no need for password, you remember? so it's empty.) note that there are NO SPACES in that address.
the second option (and second FTP-client) is built in in windows (starting with windows 95) and all the UNIXes also. it's plain old command-line ftp client. just press start, run, write there "ftp", press enter, and voila - it's started and waiting for you to enter some commands. if you are not familiar with command line - this page (http://www.textheavy.com/tutorials/winftp.html) is a good starter.
