    Do you get an error if you choose "Refresh File List" from the Directories menu, or try to upload a file? It's strange that it's letting you download a file list but not a file.

    Thanks,

    No, that works fine.

    How about downloading any other files?

    I can download text files with no problem but not jpg and gif.

    Do you know if anyone else can download images from this server, using Fetch or any other FTP client? It sounds like a server problem.

    Thanks,
