A second issue I noticed is that if you change the folder windows folder permissions of the folders that are shared by ftp, the ftp does not work properly anymore. By changing the folder permissions I mean that you share the folder in a local network for example.
Solution:

I installed Xampp on my Server machine and while the http was working fine the filezilla ftp access showed very odd behavior. After screwing with the problem for several hours i finally realized that the solution was quite simple.

Solution:

Disable your windows firewall, or open the ftp port 21 and you will be fine.
