It seems thast you don't have winsock client installed on your workstation. The FTP protocol is handled by winsock proxy and not by the web proxy. What you need to do is connect to the proxy server with your browser, http//machinename/msproxy or by IP if so configured, and install the winsock client. Alternatively you should be able to to browse the proxy server in the network neighborhood and find the mspclnt folder and run the setup from there. Provideing your proxy server uses winsock proxy and you have the necessary permissions, then you should have no problems with FTP-ing to sites. Presently you don't have permission to use the winsock proxy, either for the lack of winsock client or lack of permission.
