.NET FTP which is allowed on Medium Security Settings

Hi

I currently use GoDaddy for Hosting and am trying to upload a file to another website (customer of ours) however GoDaddy keeps throwing a security exception.

The FTP code I am using is as follows:

Private Sub uploadFile(ByVal FTPAddress As String, ByVal filePath As String, ByVal username As String, ByVal password As String) 'Create FTP request

        Try
            Dim request As FtpWebRequest = DirectCast(FtpWebRequest.Create(FTPAddress & "/" & TLfilename), FtpWebRequest)

            request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile
            request.Credentials = New NetworkCredential(username, password)
            request.UsePassive = True
            request.UseBinary = True
            request.KeepAlive = False

            Dim buffer As Byte() = Nothing
            'Load the file
            Using stream As FileStream = File.OpenRead(filePath)
                buffer = New Byte(CInt(stream.Length - 1)) {}
                stream.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length)
            End Using

            'Upload file
            Using reqStream As Stream = request.GetRequestStream()
                reqStream.Write(buffer, 0, buffer.Length)
            End Using

            Response.Write("Uploaded Sucessfully")
        Catch
            Response.Write("Failed to Upload")
        End Try
    End Sub

GoDaddy uses Medium trust settings (you can not change this as I have tried with them).

and it keeps throwing the following error:

Security Exception

Is there a better way of processing FTP on a medium trust level?
