moving folders

Since this file can be read, via FTP, I wonder if it has to do with the way 
I moved the folders.
Should I use quote signs if it is a folder?
Or, perhaps it has to do with the fact that it originated from the 
"incoming" folder.
The other files & folders I put into the /home/MyUsername folder, and 
transferred them from there.

Glen,
At first glance, this appears to be a permitions problem. Ensure that
the user and group that is being used to access teh files via ftp has
read permition on files, and read/execute permition on directories. If
the permitions are not right on files, many ftp servers will simply not
show them.
