At least, that what it feels like. Problem is, I can no longer ftp directly using SmartFTP. Now when I try, it says:

"No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. "

If I follow the help link, it suggests that either firewalls or adware are blocking access. I've made sure that Norton allows SmartFTP (hell, I've turned it off completely) and I've updated and run Spybot and Ad-Aware. No help.

I recently updated a bunch of crap on my pc like Norton and Windows Update, and it seems like it worked before then but not after. Nothing else had changed that I know of.

I use a softmod with Evox, settings all worked before, made sure the connection is physically ok, pinged xbox successfully, wft?

Anyway, thanks for any help.

I've had these problems with other FTP clients as well.

Try using FlashFXP, it seems to be flawless with Xbox. Just remember to un-select "Passive Mode" on your connection properties.
