FTP blocked by firewall

I have a problem with Windows XP RA. I have been using Internet for a while now and everything worked fine. I am also using RA to do some work from home. Everything worked fine until yesterday. Since yesterday, I cannot access to our FTP server. A colleague told me that my access to FTP is probably blocked by firewall. Is that true?

If you did not install anything on your home and work computer lately, I think that you your remote administrator is OK. Much bigger possibility is that you have a virus on your home computer. That is, probably, the reason why your networks firewall will not let you access to FTP server. I think you have to do a complete antivirus check of your computer. For that problem, you have to obtain couple of programs. For anti-spyware software, I would advise you to download and install SpyBot S & D. For anti-virus software, install AVG free. Both of those programs are freewares, which does not reduce their efficiency. You should also check with your network admin did he change some settings on your network firewall lately.
