I had a similar experience before. Noticing that ange-ftp was working
with Windows ftp, but not Cygwin ftp, I renamed Cygwin ftp.exe to
something like ftp.tmp.
Alas, the next time I updated Cygwin, it installed ftp.exe again, and
ange-ftp hung.
I now explicitly specify the path name of Windows ftp for ange-ftp.
