You have a problem connecting to the host. Trying here in a ftp program the url ftp://media.kgts.ru says:

Another URL to test?

It's a provider's internal FTP, you cannot access it outside. The problem occurs with any other ftp too.

It seems to be a problem with ftp server or something else. Please close this bug.
