It sounds like you have a batch file called ftp.(bat|cmd), and instead of calling %systemroot%\system32\ftp.exe, you're calling .\ftp.(bat|cmd). CMD looks in the current directory first before walking the %PATH%.

Is that cryptic enough for ya?

Seemingly unrelated fun fact: The background of this box is FFFFCC.
