Hi Knutmill

Let's start at the beginning.

Do you have dial up connection or broadband ?

"an existing connection was forcibly closed by remote host"

And that is the error message that your ftp program gives you when you try to connect.

You will, of course, have a firewall program running on your computer and you will have given your ftp program permission to use the internet.

If you have a firewall program. (Which, if you have broadband, it would be a jolly good idea to have.)

Then it looks after your internet connection. It monitors the programs which try to access the connection. If they are malevolent (word of the day) you do not want them chatting away on your internet connection. The only way your firewall knows who is good and who is bad, is by you telling it.

This is called giving permission for a program to access the internet.

If you look at your firewall program, there is probably an icon at the rh side of the bar at the bottom of your screen. Right click on that and select firewall and "internet connectons" or similar.

There will be a list of all the programs which have been granted permission and also those which have been denied.

Don't turn off any Microsoft ones, as some are tied in to the Operating System. Stuff might stop working.

See if your ftp program is there, if not then add it and give it permission.

Hello Stephen
I've just been to your Web Site. The home page is opening (minus picture) but the links do not appear to be working.
