I tell you what, this little 128 meg USB flash drive that came with my 'pooter is a hoot. I guess mine was free, to make way for those playing mp3s and all the other jazz that I don't need. The size is just right, weighs nothing, and it holds enough to make it worth my while. Another addition to my utility belt... a great way to transfer data quickly!

Really Big Brain is now on two monitors, Big Brain is on the operating table....I'm stealing some of his memory, and devouring any other bone marrow that could be of use. I like having a Frankenstein machine laying around, so that I can test parts and pieces.

I'm having some trouble FTPing with XP... I'm not sure what the story is. Maybe some proxy issues? I tried both the IP address and the DNS still times out. It's a static IP, and I'm just trying to fiddle with my website / Newtcam. I can log in, but that's about it.

The Message I get is -
"An Error occurred opening that folder on the FTP Server. -
200 Type set to A
200 PORT command successful
425 Can't build data connection: Connection timed out. "
Anyone know of why I'd have weirdness via XP? I'm looking through known issues, now. Any answered would be greatly appreciated from folks that know more about XP pro. I can hit it from the command prompt.

[update: - ten minutes later] - Fixed the problem by changing to "passive mode". If you're using IE, goto Extra > Internet Options > Advanced, then goto the surfing header and check the box that says something like "use passive FTP-protocol". unfortunately, chillcam isn't liking that too much, despite there being a passive FTP option there, too.Site Meter
