FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is specifically designed for transferring files over the internet. TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is a communication protocol that provides reliable communication between two applications. NNTP (Network News Transport Protocol) is used for distributing Usenet newsgroup articles. POP (Post Office Protocol) is used for retrieving e-mails from a mail server.
