When I run the script, it launches Classic - not the best thing in my mind. I've heard that URL Access Scripting under OSX is not a great thing - what are my options?

curl is the winner. (Well, that's an opinion.)  <http://haxx.se/curl.html> Apple delivers an older version with OS neXt. "man curl" in Terminal.app  for more about that.

Curl can be used with a "do shell script" command

For progress reports from curl using Terminal.app check out:

There is also "Finder:Go:Connect to server" but it does not allow uploads even with a name and password. Curl has the -T option for that. (We may have upload and download confused here. I don't think URL Access ever did what I call uploads.)
