FTP connection error message (4 posts)

    I cant connect for some reason and have had no problems in the past. I get the message:

    An FTP connection to "ftp.modernmemoriesforlife.com" (by way of proxy server"") could not be opened because the the type of proxy server you have specified in the Preferences requires more information.

    Any ideas of what to change in the Preferences/proxy settings? or how to avoid getting this message all together? Thank you!

    Hi,

    Try this to solve the problem:

    * Choose Fetch > Preferences
    * Click on the Proxy tab (Fetch 5) or Firewall tab (Fetch 4)
    * Check to make sure the "Proxy type" pop-up menu is set to "None". If it's not, choose "None" and try connecting again.

    If that does not fix the problem, or the proxy type was already set to "None," let us know and we can investigate further.

    Thanks,
