Is there anybody that can explain why I am getting the above error message........
Below message sent to forum on 14th of Feb.  I can not get a suitable explanation for this total breakdown in ftp access.  Has it happened to many of you?  Please help...

Hi all

This is my first post, and I have made note of comments RE not reading the manual and searching the archive sufficiently prior to asking a question that may have been asked previously.  I have searched the manual and trawled the archive mail.  I did find one useful post - informationally speaking.

After reading the above link I found suggested reasons as to why I have suffered a complete ftp access breakdown.  Hacking.  I really need more information.  I currently administer a RaQ3 and I am being hung by clients who cannot access their sites.
Is there any "fix" or precautions that I can take for the future, but, more importantly, how do I get the machine working again and has this happened to many of you?

Thank you in advance for your patience on this matter.
