Thanks, I found the problem (using an ip-sniffer). 

The problem is, that my browser tries to do the download in passiv mode
(PASV-command). The remote ftp server accepts the PASV-command, but it
does not accept the data-connection (maybe because the firewall blocks
connection-requests to non standard ports).

I use a normal ftp-client now, so that I can decide whether to do the
transfer in active or passive mode. This works (only if not PASV).
