Wow.. you have many problems.
Can we start one by one ?

a) first, test everything locally first.
can you login locally using ftp.exe -> ftp localhost ? or ftp yourip ?

b) so you have ISA running in the same box with IIS 6 ?

c) from remote machine, can you login via ftp.exe to your IIS server?
try login and dir listing.
any problem ?

d) if you use IE to connect, any problems ?
