Hi,

Maybe that FTP server doesn't support Passive or PASV Mode FTP.
Can't you just use an FTP Client other than the command-line (like ws-ftp or
CuteFTP)?
If so, just configure that FTP client to use web proxy service or,
aditionally, install the ISA Firewall Client.

You will get the ftp acess for sure.

Regards
