Full FTP, logging in error.

Okay, I just downloaded the full setup of FTP, because I couldn't download the normal one, it takes forever for it to load. So I downloaded this one, but when I try to log-in..it keeps on saying "530 Authentication failed, sorry
Cannot login waiting to retry (30s)..."
Why? Everything I put in is right, I have double, triple checked this....

Well, some setting must be wrong anyways. Have you tried using another FTP client for reference? If it doesn't work there, too, it's not SmartFTP's fault.

i have been having the same problem for the past 5 days...it worked fine on the 10th then alla sudden stoped n said the same thing...it has also happened to two of my friends....web design is the only thing i am good at...the one thing i am proud of is my sites...but with all of this i am more then ready to jus forget it all...a lot of my friends and fans have begged me not to go but this is leaving me not much of a choice...i have downloaded numorous FTP programs and i have had the same problem with all of them so i mean i know it is not SmartFTP's fault...id still like to know what went wrong thogh

alright i have it figured out now...use this info...
