There are known issues with some Windows FTP clients and vsftpd.  The primary issue is that the Windows clients exhibiting the problems do not adhere to the RFCs fully (what a shocker!) and the login handshake is unsuccessful as far as Windows is concerned.

WU-FTP and ProFTPD does seem to work with these broken Winblows clients.
Both are open source and available for Linux.  Google for them.
