    Hi! I'm new here at the forum so I don't know if it's been asked before. The problem is that I can NEVER get pass hidden dirs

    for example ftp://123.123.123.123/ /me/

    It will say "the system can't find the path specified"

    How can I get pass this? Even If I double click on the folder icon (because it appears on the file list dysplay) it says "getting file" and then again that the system can't find the path specified

    HELP!!!!

    So in the example you give there's a directory with the name " " (that's one space character)?

    Could you post a transcript of an attempt to enter a hidden directory?

    It looks like a bug in the server makes this difficult. The server ignores leading spaces in commands, which makes it hard to change directory to a directory named " "!

    Before I offer more specific help, I'd like to be sure I'm not becoming an accessory to copyright infringement :). Are the files you are trying to download subject to copyright?
