 DG> Hmmm... No such luck here. No matter what password I enter into the

Mine says
FTPPM.exe    ³  138268³10-10-94³  8:03
I forgot to mention that I have applied FP 17, though AFAIK it didn't
update FTPPM.EXE.
Here's another oddity.  When I try to transfer files to/from
ftp.westsound.com using FTP-PM I get an authorization error, but
the same files transfer perfectly using the text mode ftp.exe...
