OK, to make use of File::Spec, look at the following sample:

use File::Spec;

my $file_path=File::Spec->catfile('C:','Path','To','File.exe');
print "$file_path\n";

This will print:

C:\Path\To\File.exe

The advantage is, the module will put in the directory seperators for you, as appropriate for the OS. Also, you don't have to remember to escape the '\' character in a Windows path (basically making things cleaner). Also, it looks like you've got debug turned on, what kind of messages is it Net::FTP giving you?
