I recently started using new Laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium.
I'm getting this message. I'm 100% sure the password is correct.

Code: Select all

Status:	Resolving address of [example.org]
Status:	Connecting to ***.***.***.***:21...
Status:	Connection established, waiting for welcome message...
Response:	220 [MyHost] FTP Server
Command:	USER [UserName]
Response:	331 Password required for  [UserName]
Command:	PASS *********
Response:	530 Login incorrect.
Error:	Critical error
Error:	Could not connect to server
There is no Firewall/Antivirus issue.. I checked once again after disabling these programs.

??? logins are working fine in command line FTP.

I've cross checked in my old laptop [Vista] using FileZilla.. logins are woking fine.

can some one help me out in fixing this issue?

Thank You.

Make sure character case isn't an issue. Also, note that if copy&pasting user-names and passwords, it's often happening that leading/trailing whitespace is accidentally copied.

Same problem means same solution. Remove the leading whitespace.
