Maybe. But it that same Windows machine, I can open that same remote
file with an Internet Browser (URL
"ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/README";).

Now I wonder this: as you can see, the last command previous to the
error is an "ls" command. That is a UNIX shell command, not available
in Windows machines AFAIK. So, I guess Emacs somehow emulates it. But
I'm tried to run the command with `M-!' and I get this error:
> 'ls' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
> operable program or batch file.

So... Do I need to install some extra tools in my Windows machine to
make "ls" and other UNIX commands work?.
(I've just downloaded the file "emacs-23.2-bin-i386.zip", extracted
their contents into my hard disk, and invoked "runemacs.exe").
