You are right. I tried to run the ftp server demo as a normal app and it 
failed to resolve "ftp" port. Something happened in the last few days since 
it was working earlier. I am quite sure I haven't been infected by a virus 
though, I keep a good security profile on my system. I don't have norton, 
don't like it either. As for an antivirus I use Kaspersky.

How could I debug this problem to find where the error lies in the system ? 
Maybe some registry setting ?

Thanks
