I cannot reproduce this, on Windows XP SP2.  It works for me.

I would suspect some network setup, because where you get your
connection closed:

    257 "/"
    cd "/pub/mozilla.org/README/"
    550 Failed to change directory.
    cd "/pub/mozilla.org/README/"
    550 Failed to change directory.
    cd "/pub/mozilla.org/"
    250 Directory successfully changed.
    ls -al c:/DOCUME~1/admin/LOCALS~1/Temp/ange-ftp4012GxJ
    Connection closed by remote host.
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I get the directory listing:

    257 "/"
    cd "/pub/mozilla.org/README/"
    550 Failed to change directory.
    cd "/pub/mozilla.org/README/"
    550 Failed to change directory.
    cd "/pub/mozilla.org/"
    250 Directory successfully changed.
    ls -al c:/DOCUME~1/Zaretzky/LOCALS~1/Temp/ange-ftp2956QFL
    200 PORT command successful. Consider using PASV.
    150 Here comes the directory listing.
