In your ftp program, see if you can't set the remote directory.  If so, set 
it to something like /web or //web  or ///web or /../../web.
/web works for me in wsftp.
Second choice would be to use putty and winscp2.  Then you could probably 
use admin for more than 32 sites and using ssh instead of ftp is more 
secure anyway.
