Answer 1

I use Windows XP..

I have tried to delete the file from Explorer, using "ftp://192.168.1.3", and I have the same problem (access denied: code 550)

I think that it is a permission problem but I don't know how resolve it

Can someone help me?

Your user account doesn't have permission to delete the file it seems. You need to use a user that does.
