I got this message: "550 PWD: Permission denied" when trying to download from
this software library. It is working with IE, so I do not know what the problem is.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on any program you want to download
2. Click on 'Download' ('Letöltés' in Hungarian)
3. Have the error message

Actual Results:  
I have that message and it does not let me to download. 

Expected Results:  
Mozilla should have opened my download manager (Download Mage) as usual.

I use default modern theme, have XP Pro SP1 Hungarian installed. Configuration:
Celeron 1,7, 512 DDR 333, Gigabyte GA8-PE667 motherboard, Quantum 7200rpm 40GB
HDD, Abit GF4MX-SE VGA.

Apparently you can't CWD to the directory.

Another link that exibits the same problem.

ftp://ftp.cenega.co.uk/UFO/eng_12-13.zip

You can connect to the server, but can't CWD to the dir UFO. This does not
prevent downloading the file:

NcFTP 3.1.5 (Oct 13, 2002) by Mike Gleason ([e-mail]).

I don't know what causes the first "PWD: Permission denied" error.
