I wanna delete this site

I have a site that I want to delete but for some reason I can't access it via FTP. I wrote the guy who host it but he never got back to me.

Maybe you'll be able to access it - and if you can delete it for me.

FTP: ftp://beholdhecomes.net
Username: [removed]
Password: [removed]

Thank you...

Password works for me in Firefox, but I can't delete anything from there and no FTP client available at the moment.
Try another computer. Any windows machine (this is a mac, sadlly) should be able to at least delete files just using internet explorer for ftp.

FTP access is working fine... Konqueror's busily deleting it right now.

Right, FTP was working. I meant that FF won't allow me to delete anything, not that the FTP had any problems.

Since Twey is deleting the files, I just removed the user/pass from your post, so that no one will come along and start borrowing from your webhosting account. If for some reason you still want people to access it, feel free to put it back, but better safe than sorry at the moment.

It's not working for me and I've already tried it on 2 other computers.

What are you using for FTP? Just IE?
In most cases, IE works, but I've had connection troubles on some hosts, just with IE.
You might want to try a couple other FTP apps.

Yea I'm using IE - never had a problem with it before.
Nevertheless, I can't add anything to the computer I'm using right now so if you can delete the site I'd appreciate it.


You still have the User/Pass?

Thank you...

Could you try again Twey cause it's not deleted.

What's the username and pass, I'll have a shot at it. Also, do you know if you have telnet/ssh access to the server? If you don't want to post the info on here again, just send it via PM.

Sent it to you via private message.
Hope you have better luck then I have.

Sorry, no luck. Gave it a try with 3 of my FTP clients, as well as some of my browsers (IE and FF) without luck. It says that the data connection is already open, then it times out. The only thing I can think of doing is talking to your host again (basically harass them) and get them to remove your site (or at least the files). I noticed that your server is using Microsoft (or Windows) IIS and the FTP server is Microsoft FTP Service. I recommend you find another host that is not on a Windows IIS system, but that is just a personal opinion (because I deal with these POS systems at work and I can't stand them).

Anyways; sorry, but I couldn't even get access to it using FTP.

I'll try writing the host again.

Hey jack, just out of curiosity why do you want to delete it.

I deleted it, except for one folder, css/, which it refuses to delete.

Thanks Twey...

I was finally able to access it via FTP a few minutes ago and notice that it had been deleted.

Think I'm just gonna use it for fun from now on.

Thanks again! :)

Ps: Who's Benny Hinn? :D
