I recently noticed that when I upgraded Vista from 32bit to 64bit, I must have chosen to install the 64bit version on a second hard drive. Unfortunately, Windows felt it was necessary to leave system files on the first drive, effectively tieing up both drives. I wanted to pull one of the drive to expand the storage in my Windows Home Server.

After reinstalling a new version of Vista on a single drive, I started reinstalling all my applications. One of the applications that gave me an issue was NuSphere's PhpEd. After configuring a project to use an ftp connection to sync files PhpEd continually gave me "Socket Error # 11004". I was trying to use the domain name for the hostname. When I switched the ftp connection to use the IP address of my server, my firewall application, BitDefender unblocked internet requests from PhpEd.

So, if you are getting "Socket Error #11004", try taking a look at your firewall before anything else.
