for x in `cat file` is a useless use of cat and dangerous use of backticks and much better written as a while read loop.

Code:
#!/bin/bash -vx
while read g
do
echo $g
ftp -u $g<<++EOT++
user ftp ftp@anonymous.com
bin
lcd c:\investigate
hash
bell
mget *.*
user <ftp> <ftp@aol.com>
bin
mget  *.*
quit
++EOT++
done < ftphosts.txt

I'm not sure the FTP syntax is right, but that is harder to check -- I can't run it on your FTP after all...
