Hoping someone can give me a hand on this one.

I have two computers, a PC and a laptop, both running WinXP pro. The PC is connected via DSL; the laptop uses dialup.

I have about 8 or 9 sites that I regularly connect to via WS FTP Pro version 7.04. There is no problem on the desktop PC. However, the laptop fails to connect to ANY of them, giving the same error: "Cannot connect".

I have double checked all the settings I can find in the program and they appear to be identical. The laptop connects fine to the internet; I have a regular ISP dialup account and a prepaid online account, and both of these connect and I can access internet and get mail with either account on the laptop.

The laptop is not running any firewall of any kind.

The laptop IS running Norton Antivirus, as is the desktop. I can't think of any other particulars, but that is the situation.

I need to be able to use the laptop to FTP when I'm traveling as I maintain several websites, and it's aggravating that it won't work.

Does anyone have ANY ideas I can try??? Goin nuts here!
