Everytime I use FTP, I get a certain "failed to establish data socket" or something like that.
It connects either VERY slowly or gives that message. Any help, or, is it me downloading too much on Shareaza?

I can't tell from that what the problem is but I do know the 4 most common problems are:
1. Turning passive mode on or off helps in most cases.
2. Raising the timeout limit to double what you currently have set helps
3. Switching between auto/binary/ASCII can sometimes help
4. The server is down.
1 or 2 usually fixes most problems and if it's only just starting to have problems then it could be 4
