Try this in the FTPCMDS1.TXT file:

OPEN 172.x.x.x
USER ***@remoteftpsite.com proxyusrname
ftpsitepassword
QUOTE ACCT proxypassword
BINARY
MGET *
BYE

Still no joy by adding the line QUOTE ACCT proxypassword -- hidden pwd
Any further advise would be fantastic

Do you include this " -- hidden pwd", is that some command switch?
Or is that Google damage. Use news client for news not google web.
There is some Mozilla client or that browser can do.


Wget should do what you want, I think is better for GETting files.

--proxy-user=user
--proxy-password=password

Or cURL
