Use http then? To get you out of trouble. Since other people dont have the problem, something fishy going on at your ISP?
I was once with an ISP that had a transparent proxy for http. I noticed because it was serving dated content, and the IP address on my remote server logs were not my own. Maybe your ISP is transparent proxying ftp? My current ISP blocks a lot of ports by default. I needed to login and disable their firewall in my customer profile.
