Title: NHD Data download
Post by: jbensman on December 07, 2008, 08:41:34 PM
I got a new computer (vista for the first time) and I got the emails for the NHD data and it will not download.  The messages state:

Please Note:
If you are having problems connecting to the FTP site, you may need to disable you passive FTP setting in Internet Explorer.
To change this setting click Tools -> Options -> Advanced and scroll down
about half way until you find a checkbox for 'Use Passive FTP...'.   
If you uncheck this box, you should be able to get to the FTP site.


I did that and it will still not download.  I seem to remember a long time ago I had to change another setting to get it to download.  Anyone know what the setting would be or why I cannot get it to download?

It was a site problem-it is working now.
