Unable to publish using Clickonce [disconnected from network error]

Question

The error details are:

    Error   1   Failed to connect to 'ftp://www.xyz.com/xyz_Publish/' with the
following error: Unable to create the Web 'ftp://www.xyz.com/xyz_Publish/'.  The computer is disconnected from the network
            1   1   xyz.PresentationLayer

It doesent matter what credentials(correct or incorrect), its is giving the same error everytime. I can connect to the ftp using filezilla and via firefox/IE.

Since yesterday everything was working fine and this error just creeped up from nowhere.

Edit: Unable to deploy any application. Getting the same error.

Answer 1

VS 2005 had to be reinstalled to fix the problem.
