I am able to login, here is the strange part. On my Windows 2000 pro and 98
machines I have no problem. Both my XP pro machines give me the same
message. I selected use passive ftp and that did nothing. Also, I disabled
the Windows firewall.
Any ideas out there?
Thanks,

Check under Internet Options> Advanced.
Experiment with the following Advanced setting:
-Use Passive FTP: This setting is enabled by default. Some FTP sites work
only when this is disabled.
