    Hopefully you can see where I am... My FTP has the file in it as you can see... I am in "cd /public_html/plugins/p13_download_ma nager/"
    Yep. Now I see where you are. An FTP prompt is not what you are after.
    I haven't done remote login since the old days of dial-up. A google search for "remote login windows" turned up some interesting things. One of which was Start->Programs->Accessories->Remote Desktop. You need some means of getting a promp from the server that asks for your user name and password, then gives you a "server/path >" type of prompt.

      I do connect to the server though.

        That's an FTP prompt. That's not what you want.
