"425 Cannot open data connection (10060)"
This is my problem. The FTP service on my computer just seized working some time ago. It won't list the remote directory contents. It DOES log in, send-recieve commands but it simply wont do the directory listing. There may be some problems with setting up the data connection.
Here, this is a log from today:

and sometimes I get
[R] List error
This was a log from
FlashFXP 3.2.0.1080. But the same happens in Windows's explorer, it wont list the directory giving me an error message saying there was an error when getting directory contents. SO the server IS THERE but I cannot get the contents of the directory for whatever reason.
Moreover,
all the applications that need somekinda FTP connection seized working saying they can't download updates or whatever...
I tried everything I could. I turned off my firewall(NIS) and the windows one too(SP2). Even if turned off I opened port 20 and 21 in both firewalls. I opened the FTP ports in every single method I could. The university uses a proxy but it is set up correctly and nothing changed with that since last september, but the FTP is not working for 3 weeks now so the proxy is not the bad guy. I tired to sitch PASV mode on and off but no effect.
What I didn't tried: Registry tweaking, that's simply not my cup of tea. Reinstalling windows, wish I DON'T plan to do in the near future since everything else is working fine. And some more things that I don't know of, hence I'm here asking for help
If anybody knows something that can be of some help, please share...
thanks in advance...
