    Simply write a batch file to start the FTP process that is built into Windows.
    You can put the FTP commands for what you want to do into a text file.

    You can also schedule NTBackup to do the backup.

    Do you want archival backups? It sounds to me like what you really want to do is set up an SVN. That can be a bit of a pain, and take a while to get used to, but it seems like something you should look into.
