Yes. Well, you should at any rate... Dedicated FTP clients are a must for
anyone who wants to control upload formats, manage content like scripts
easily, or apply permissions easily. However you can try opening IE,
clicking tools, options, advanced, find the PASV (or passive) setting and
try the other setting - the setting that you do not have currently enabled.
Close IE (probably, never really checked that one) and restart it and see if
you can access it then.
