putting the smart in SmartFTP

[kiki_miserychic]

Welcome to another thrilling addition of "Me vs. Technology" where I battle my own stupidity and beg for smarter people to help me. I'm trying to upload my CVV vid to the VVC server. I'm using SmartFTP, but it won't connect. I tried to work my google-fu, but I didn't find anything to help. This is a copy the log that I've been getting everytime I try:

At least it's not my lack of technology skills. :) Someone smart will know what to do.
