download.file() on ftp URL fails in windows with default download method
We were also able to reproduce the issue on Windows Server 2012. If there's anything we can do to help please let me know; Elliot Waingold (CC'd here) can provide access to the VM we used for testing if that's of any help.

Thanks!
I have just been looking at this issue with Martin Morgan. We found that if we "or" the additional flag INTERNET_FLAG_PASSIVE on line 1012 of src/modules/internet/internet.c (R-3.2 branch, last changed in r68393)
that the ftp connection works.
Further investigation reveals that in a passive ftp connection, certain ports on the client need to be open.
This machine is in the Amazon cloud so it was easy to open the ports...
