Hi,
For some time now I have been getting this error over and over again on
any FTP client I use, I have tried FileZilla,CuteFTP,Crystal FTP ,
Internet Explorer I even changed host thinking it was their problem but
it's not,for some reason something is blocking me from connecting to my
directory. The error is :
425 Unable to build data connection: Software caused connection abort
I get that error when it's in passive mode,if I take off passive mode I get this:
500 Unable to service PORT commands
I'm thinking it might be some software oon my pc is messing with it,i tried disabling everything from my firewall,antivirus but still no response,I can give you the names of the software i use and see if you know about any one of them blocking me. I use ZoneAlarm free firewall,Avast AntiVirus,Win XP with SP2 (windows firewall is disabled) and thats about it,if anybody has any suggestions please let me know.
kind regards
Mick

What about any physical/hardware firewalls or routers you have installed? Tried connecting directly to the Internet?
And when you say "i tried disabling everything from my firewall", what exactly do you mean; how and what did you disable? Did you manage to disable the whole thing?
As this is happening with a lot of different clients, your connection is proabably to blaim and not FZ. You might have more luck finding an answer on a router/firewall discussion group.

You said you don't have a router, and you disabled your firewall.
Either your ISP blocks FTP traffic for some reason or the server is broken. It doesn't allow active mode and passive mode fails for some reason.
What happens if you try to connect to other servers for example? ftp.kernel.org is a great server to test.
