have you try ftp.exe to download the file ?

do you specific the the internet connection firewall to forward ftp requests
? or just the exception list?

Robin,

Thanks for your help, but unfortunately, it does not fix the problem. I
added inetinfo.exe to the exception list but it continues doing the same
thing....

SP1 is applied, of course.

Any other tip I could try??

PS: Yes, I know you meant port 21 :-)

The FTP Server is outside the WAN of my company and it is connected
directly to the internet, so the only Firewall it has is the
Microsoft (when I disabled the Firewall, the transfer works well!)

How have you configured the Windows Firewall to allow FTP? You
cannot do it by just allowing TCP port 22. You must do it by
configuring an exception for the program:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\inetserv\inetinfo.exe

I am assuming here that you have applied Service Pack 1 to Windows
2003.

I meant TCP port 21 of course!
