Hi, I've run into an odd bug related to an FTP task. Occasionally the task gets stuck in a loop of running "PWD" over and over. This is on VC 7.1.0.

I can explore the FTP server using the connection explorer and it works fine, but when I use it in a job it will occasionally fail with "Exception in Task: No file(s) downloaded" even though the file I'm requesting is on the server. The standard output is below:

220 bfm1dmz8 NcFTPd Server (licensed copy) ready.

...from this point VC will just send "PWD" over and over until the task times out and fails.
