Hmm...  you shouldn't have any trouble with the http site, unless it was
really busy (just DSL here so not a very fat pipe).  ftp has troubles with
either passive or active, I don't remember now which.  There are some
firewall issues I need to iron out but haven't had the time to do thorough
testing.  Some people have used ftp successfully and others not.  But http
should work everytime.  If it doesn't work again email me directly and
I'll run some tests.
