Better FTP service needed. (suspected inteferance)

Hello there,

I have of recent been having overbearing problems with my Linux computer when accessing servers via FTP. The server behaves rather erractically and refuses to complete uploads, merely stalling the transfer for an unpredictable amount of time, which can stem from being either 5 seconds long to literally half an hour. I notice that it is only the FTP protocol which I'm experiencing problems with as http works fantastically providing marvellous speeds of up to 200kbs. It's only FTP which gives me problems and I have no idea why. A colleague suggested there could be some sort of malicious inteference of somekind and I do suspect so, but still I know not of a way to avert these problems. Is there somekind of investigation or steps I can take to correct this problem?

Thanks in advance,
Noran Rad

Thanks prashant,

I tried re-installing it before to no avail. However I doubt the problem is with the daemon program, but I really couldn't say what else it could be.
