Interesting problem I have. when I try to connect to a FTP
site, I get a error message stating " cannot find ftp:
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. make sure the path or address is correct.
and then a secondary message says ftp xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is
currenly unavailable. Now I know thw site is up, i can
connect on my portable with no problems, however to my
amazement, if I clear my history files on my desktop it
works, if I close my broswer and restart the browser and
try to connect again,it wont work, unless if I clear the
history files again.. Any ideas or solution.... Thanks

SYMPTOMS
Programs that use Wininet functions to post data (such as a user name or a
password) to a Web server retry the POST request with a blank header if the
Web server closes (or resets) the initial connection request.
