Hi John, I've since found out that it's a problem with my firewall. Apparently, I need to open port 21 to allow the application FTP X uses to conect to the site (alg.exe) to access the net properly. Thanks a lot for getting back anyway.

You should be able to view all file types. There are three windows you can TAB through: the first is the tree/folder view, pressing TAB once takes you to the files view so that you can ARROW through them and pressing TAB again takes you to the window which advises you of whether or not your commands have been successful, etc. HTH, John.
