Thanks Karen. Upon your advise, I went and downloaded the BV setup program again, and reinstalled. I then rebooted, and tried again... Same response... I then backed up my pages, uninstalled BV, re-downloaded, reinstalled again, rebooted, and retried. same response.

I tried again to connect to FTP manager, and again, an immediate "Cannot connect" response without even trying. If it came up any faster it would have come up before I pressed the OK to connect.

Thanks for the advise though.
