Are you running Mac OS X 10.2.4 or later? If so I'd recommend trying Fetch 5, which you can download from http://fetchsoftworks.com We improved the handling of hidden files on Windows servers in Fetch 5.
If that does not work please post a transcript and I'll see what we can figure out.
Thanks,

The problem is that the server says there's a file named "9B-Epic II - 19 x 12 1%2f2", but when we say to delete the file named "9B-Epic II - 19 x 12 1%2f2" it says there's no such file.
To work around this you might try entering the "1- Cut size inventory" folder, holding down Shift and clicking Delete. You will be asked to enter the name of the file to delete; enter
9B-Epic II - 19 x 12 1/2
It could be that the server is substituting %2f for / because some systems don't like slashes in file names. Which is one reason to avoid using them.
If that works you can try deleting the whole folder again, and hopefully you'll get further.
Thanks,
Jim Matthews

It looks like the server doesn't support deleting files with those characters via FTP. You should ask Interland to delete the files from their end (if they can't delete files from their own servers I would get a different hosting provider).
Thanks,

Thanks for the advice. We are in the process of moving it in house where I can manage it directly.

I have tried various ways to delete several files and am having no luck. I have set the option "Send List -al to Unix Servers" but I still cannot delete. The host (Interland) for our ftp says I have to fix the problem on my end because it is due to hidden files. Here is the fetch transcript.
