Try to Google first. BTW here is a good library.

In addition to the Solution 1, there are so many solutions you can use. Take the CodeProject articles along:
http://www.codeproject.com/search.aspx?doctypeid=1&q=FTP+client[^].

But, to make is quite clear: there is a ready-to-use class bundled with .NET Framework itself, to do it all. This is System.Net.FtpWebRequest:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.ftpwebrequest.aspx[^].

Please see the simple code sample in the article referenced above. In fact, this is all you need.

Good luck,
