how to upload a file

I need to upload a series of files using vb.net.  I had
written a
wrapper around BITS (Background Intelligent Transfer
Service), but BITS
is proving to be unreliable as far as speed. I have seen it
take several
hours to upload  a 100K file.  What other ways are good to
upload files
from a Windows Forms application.

In .NET 2.0?  I'd consider the built-in FTP support:
