I connect to the internet using my Nokia E63 phone. Instead of data cable or bluetooth I run an application called Joikuspot.

It turns the phone into a wifi access point point. Long story short the phone shows up on my vista laptop as a wifi network called "joikuspot connection", I connect and browse the internet. Now I use the free version of the program which is fully functional except one crucial lacking. It only allows http connections to be made. Which means I can browse websites, download files and even watch youtube. But I can not use anything else like using a FTP program to connect to a FTP server. Is there any way to create an FTP connection over an internet connection that only allows HTTP protocol ?

Do you control the FTP server, or is this someone else's? If it's your server, I would suggest using WebDAV, which a quick google search suggests would work on you Joikuspot light.

Not directly, but there are various proxies available, such as net2ftp.

Building on that idea, depending on exact limitations, if you have a second always-on computer, you could use it effectively as a proxy with some remoting program (RDP, VNC, etc).
