hey there. i'm not great with this sort of stuff..but i thought i'd try to help you anyways, since my hubby had an issue like this too.
firstly, are you using a crossover cable?
2nd: make sure your pc has a static ip
3rd: in defult gateway on your pc, enter the xbox's ip. in the default gateway for the xbox, enter the pc ip. subnet mask should be automatically 255.255.255.0 or something like that for both.
4th: make sure the ftp proggie your using has the right password for the xbox. your dashboard can have a differant p/w from the startup screen. go into settings and check them...then type the dashboard ftp p/w into your pc's ftp settings...and make sure the xbox is on the dashboard when your ready to go.
i hope i made sense. if not, try using the search up the top of the forum. type in something like "Connecting XBox to PC" or whatever.

Then the problem sin't your X-box if you've tried it on your buddy's pc. It has to be something on your pc or the way you have your router configured. take your router over your buddies house and see if you can access the box-could be you have the firewall of the router on? also see if you can ping the xbox when its hookedup to your pc. but it has to be either the router or the way you have your pc configured. Make sure on your pc and desktop that the ip's are on the smae subnet(Ex-XXX.XXX.XXX.last thre digits should be different)
