   I can't delete a theme from my filezilla ftp. My fault for downloading it as a zipped file, but I should be able to delete it!

   I keep changing the permissions on it, but that doesn't help.

   The error message I get is: 550 doc.zip: Forbidden filename

   Any help is greatly appreciated!

   Try and delete it through your hosting 'file manager' option.

   Might have to get your host to do that then.

   Hmm, I can try that. I wonder why I can't just delete it myself though.

   Ask your host that when you talk to them.

   I will try that but I will leave this open for a bit to see if I get different replies. Although that does sound like the way to go.

   I deleted it.

   I was going to switch hosts before posting this. I since have and deleted the zip.

   Note: My old host was Awardspace.
