ok I will try this in a few minutes, thanks for suggestion.
try ftp -e or use ncftp and do a set passive off
Im ftping from the command prompt for more info.
As if there is any other way ;) (don't bother to answer that, I know there are many guis and frontends for ftp, most of them suck donkeys through very thin straws .. Downloader for X rules though)
