Can not open contents of folder using global proxy

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem? Please include as much detail as
possible.
1.Swiftp running on Motorola Droid, rooted, 2.1 stock
2.Connect to global proxy url listed in swiftp app using winxp explorer
3.Box pops up for username and password, input both values
4.
5.
6.

What is the expected behavior? What do you see instead?
I expected my files in the selected folder to show up. Instead, I can see that 
explorer "connects" and then begins searching for contents of the folder. After 
10-15 seconds, I get an error message as follows:

An error occurred opening that folder on the FTP server. Make sure you have 
permission to access that folder. Details: the operation timed out.

I've attempted changing the folder that swiftp is relegated to, /sdcard, 
/sdcard/music, etc and that hasn't seemed to affect the issue. Works flawlessly 
over wifi. Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

What version of SwiFTP are you using?
Swiftp Server 1.24

What operating system are you using?
Win XP

Which FTP client are you using?
Explorer, Chrome

Which Android device and version do you have (Nexus, Droid, Hero, G1,
etc.)?
Motorola Droid, 2.1 stock, rooted

I've tried both the username I chose and my username with the extra letters 
attached as they show in the swiftp app

Same issue here.  FTP through explorer.exe in XP does not work with global 
proxy, however, Firefox will connect properly.  This is great for fetching 
files but I do not see a provision for uploading in Firefox (a plugin or two 
claims to allow this but I want to be able to upload files from computers that 
I may not have the access to install software).  Checked iexplore.exe but it 
turns up the same error as explorer.exe.

I also get "550 Invalid name or chroot violation" when using Firefox. When I 
try chrome it keeps asking for password over and over. Using Filezilla FTP 
client  throws a failed to List error.  It's definitely the (c1.swiftp.org)  
proxy causing this. I say that because it all works fine when bypassing the 
proxy using a WIFI connection.

What changed on the proxy? 
Any guidance on this would be appreciated.

I can not log onto the server with the user name and password I chose either.  
I changed my settings on my phone saved and closed the ap then reopened to see 
if it needed to be restarted to save but I am still not able to log in.
