Can anyone tell me why i can't download from ftp sites? When i go on www.downloads.com and try to download all i get is hang time and no download. Please help TY. I want to ad that i check all my settings and there fine and i updated and ran spybot but still no go.
Do you run a firewall program, or have you got the XP firewall enabled?
These can prevent downloads unless the ports are configured.
Try disabling them for a start and trying again, if they are active. The built in XP one would be the prime suspect.
I have just tried the site with Kerio firewall active, and it blocked the requests, the download never started.
Ok realy stupid question, where do i find XPs firewall so i can disable it.
