I bought some software - Graphics Workshop 4.0 from
Alchemy Mindworks.
Loaded it and want different "skins" than came with it.
I have to go to this site
ftp://ftp.alchemymindworks.com/pub/alchemy/themes40.msi
Up pops a window says seeking authentication...
then after about ten seconds another window asking for User and
Password.
I assume this is coming from them.
I have a user name and password of theirs, but it does not work.
There tech rep is stymied, says I should not see that window and asked,
"Is the FTP login name for your web browser set to "anonymous"? (Without
the quote marks.)"
I have NO IDEA what he is talking about.
HELP ?
You said: "I have a user name and password of theirs, but it does not
work." I assumed per example that your username is "USER" ans your
password is "PWD"
So you should try to connect to the ftp server with the url modified
with your real user/password...
This is the url you need:
ftp://USER:[email protected]/pub/alchemy/themes40.msi
try it ...

OK...!
Got it to work.
I used "anonymous" and my ISP password.
When the user is "anonymous" then the password is normally
your email address! Since most FTP servers keep a log, your
ISP password is now in someone's log.
Again, "anonymous" means no encryption will be used, so the
password/emailaddy is in the clear.
