does 'sfc /scannow' report any problems?
ASKER
how do you run that
<CMD> window or <start> -> <run> ...
perhaps 'sfc.exe /scannow'
perhaps 'sfc.exe /scannow'
ASKER
it says i have to be admin to run this but i am logged on as admin anyway
That's _very_ strange! No clue for this.

Yes, there are some good ftp servers around -
filezilla -
http://filezilla-project.o rg/
warftp (which I'm not familiar with) -
http://www.warftp.org/inde x.php?menu =344
There are much more. I'd suggest trying filezilla first.
Please come back if you don't like it for some reason.

what is your platform?
How did you check that FTP is installed?
If it's UNIX, please have a look at /etc/inetd.conf and search for ftp. Is it there? Is perhaps something commented out?
