ftp error

Hi Can anyone advise why I get this error and how to solve it when trying to do a web update

FTP Error: FTP component already connected
Aborting

If you are doing a manual update and have automatic updates configured, then it is possible that you are trying to force an update while one is already in progress. The error message can also be a result of a timeout. For better diagnosis of ftp issues, you need to turn on ftp logging and look at ftplog.txt

Thanks - all sorted now

OK, so here is an even more confusing question. I am setting up a station for the township. I have been running a station at home for years (Davis) with cumulus. I have a pretty good grasp on how things operate and have no issues. Here's my question. I Can't FTP out at the township building right now as we are waiting for IT. to clear us. All is set up and weather underground is running smoothly. I have the FTP boxes unchecked until we are cleared. Here is the funny part, a few times a day i get the township site updated with what appears to be current data but I have no idea how that happens. What am I missing.
