well ... I didnt knew where to put this question so I am putting it here ...

there should be a section here by the name of "Misc" ....

there is a problem and that is when I download the registry guide ... it is giving me the following error from the FTP server ... can it be fixed from my side or the problem exist on the other end ?

the message goes like

" file download of registry.exe was not completed due to unexpected server response ... 450 short send: at most -848373 of 56343 bytes were received by client host"

Hello,

We have not had any other reports of problems downloading the file, are you connecting to ftp.winguides.com or ftp2.winguides.com?

Alternatively you might try the HTTP download method the link is http://www.winguides.com/ (http://www.winguides.com/downloads/registry.exe>http://www.winguides.com/downloads/registry.exe</a>

Regards,

Simon)

well it is connecting to ftp.winguides.com ... usually opens up 4 ports but it is opening 2 and 2 are not responding ... I am using download accelerator to download it ... ft2.winguides.com is working just fine but something is wrong with ftp.winguides.com

The reason may be that ftp.winguides.com is set to only allow a maximum of 2 connections from the same IP address. This is to avoid excessive resources being dedicated to one download, because it takes more server resources for each connection.

I would suggest either using the HTTP download method or limiting the software to a maximum of two connections.
