Has the threading of this version changed is behaviour?? I like to use ftp.nas.nasa.gov as my mirror of choice, and now I'm getting this strange behaviour where I seem to keep getting an error message 530 "Sorry: No more than two simultaneous connections per host are allowed". Any ideas as to why this is occurring?? Thanks.
