Thanks
I have found a fix, but it is rather inconvienient.
If you use an FTP proxy for your FTP, and a HTTP proxy for your HTTP, it
works.
This shouldnt be though. My friend suggested an error with my DNS settings,
but I have never editted them, and barely have much knowledge of them to be
able to fix them. Any ideas from anyone else?
