Error loading directory from behind WinXP firewall

I get the following log entries:

I do have Windows XP firewall enabled. As you can see above, PASV doesn't work. Also, other FTP clients work without problems. For example, WS_FTP95 is fine, as is the FTP command-line client:

C:\>ftp www.xxxxx.com
Connected to www.xxxxx.com.

I have tried disabling the "Advanced directory listing" option, enabling "Legacy mode" and setting "Server type". All produced the same results.
