if you want to use FTP you need to have a FTP server running.
If you want to log in with your putty username, chose SFTP instead of FTP when connecting

He understood you and what he told you is true. You need an FTP server program on your vServer to use FTP. I have a better alternative for you though:
> WinSCP http://winscp.net/

It's an FTP client but it can use the SSH connection (SFTP). This means you can use the same login data as you're using with putty and you don't have to install an FTP server program on your vServer.

@user DC: Dear, actually i'm using WinSCP it's work great.
But, the password is the problem. In the past, i could use it fine and it's work, but now the password changed and i don't know who change it.
This is the problem.

I don't even want to help you anymore after seeing how you ignored my fully correct post.
Anyways, if you're using SFTP (that's exactly what winscp does and that's exactly what I told you) you need to use exactly the same username and password that you're using in putty (that's also what I've told you before). So if your password works in putty it also works in winscp

"Someone" changed your user name and password? Contact your vServer provider to reset/change your password. You may also be able to do that on the admin/control center website of your vServer provider.

Use better passwords and never use the same password for multiple different things.

So... your password doesn't work anymore and your hoster will be inactive soon. Maybe those two things are connected...? You should know yourself that you can forget that VPS then sooner or later.
