Don't run before you can walk. IOW, get to grips with Google to locate
resources like this: http://shg.ic.ucsb.edu/project/tut/FTP/

I have changed my FTP template files to do this job. The first
one is a batch file that uses the second one, which is a FTP
script.

ftp-batch.cmd (or ftp-batch.bat):

@echo off
ftp -i -d -n -s:ftp-batch.ftp

ftp-batch.ftp:

open ftp.microsoft.com
user anonymous (e-mail address removed)
binary
lcd %homepath%/Eigene Dateien
cd ResKit/win2000
get jt.zip
bye

OK, it is a little bit of overkill for just downloading one
file. But it works fine for me.

It should be:

ftp> open ftp.microsoft.com

You don't need to write the port-number. And port 80 means HTTP, not FTP.
