This is what I get:

I have been trying to connect to my ftp server and I cannot... I bought FlashFXP because to me it is the best software out there... but if I cannot connect...

Please, Pretty Please Help me!!! Also I tried it taking off Passive mode and I though I connect every 4 seconds I get an error of a file not transferring. This is getting irritating and frustrating. Please help.

In your proxy attempt you didn't fully setup the proxy connection, it looks like since you left out the proxy hostname.

In all of these attempts you're using passive mode, The ftp server may be firewalled and not be able to support this behavior. You'll need to uncheck "use passive mode" and configure your firewall and FlashFXP to use a set range of incoming ports.

Well thing is that if I don't use Passive, this is what happens:

A couple of files get transffered allright, then the file transfers break up and they don't get transferred at all saying there is an error in the transfer.

This is the only place I am getting this sort of error, in other FTP servers my access is normal.

Example:

200 PORT command successful.
STOR lang-german.php
150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for lang-german.php.
226 Transfer complete.
Transferred: lang-german.php 1 KB in 0.17 (1.84 KBps)
PORT 172,16,1,36,7,25
200 PORT command successful.
STOR lang-greek.php
150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for lang-greek.php.
226 Transfer complete.
Transferred: lang-greek.php 1 KB in 0.16 (1.80 KBps)
PORT 172,16,1,36,7,26
200 PORT command successful.
STOR lang-hungarian.php
500 OR not understood.
Transfer Failed!
PORT 172,16,1,36,7,27
200 PORT command successful.
STOR lang-icelandic.php
500 OR not understood.
Transfer Failed!
PORT 172,16,1,36,7,28
200 PORT command successful.
STOR lang-indonesian.php
500 OR not understood.
