Do you see the same problem with "Use passive mode transfers (PASV)" unchecked in the Firewall section of Fetch Preferences?
If so could you choose "Fetch Transcript" from the Window menu when you see the running dog problem and post the contents in your reply?
Thanks,

Here's the transcript:

SITE DIRSTYLE -

The server, or some firewall in front of the server, is rejecting Fetch's attempt to use the "SITE DIRSTYLE" command. Unfortunately there isn't currently a way to tell Fetch not to use that command. It certainly doesn't do any harm, but firewalls running intrusion detection software sometimes raise false alarms about uncommon commands like SITE DIRSTYLE. I would nicely ask the server administrator to please allow SITE DIRSTYLE so that you can continue to use Fetch with his or her server. Otherwise you should try a different FTP client.

I am suddenly experiencing the running dog syndrome when trying to get the file list from the server.
I have not (to my knowledge) changed any settings, and all connections worked fine as recently as last week. Now, the dog just runs...
I am running v4.0.3. OSX firewall is off, and the setting is passive.
I have trashed the preferences, and even re-installed 4.0.3 but still have the same problem.
I tried to log on the server using IE and was able to see the file list - so I know their server is running. (they have not changed any settings since last connection.)
Any ideas?
