The directory contents are listing fine. However, the '..' throws an error, so the whole 'ls -la' command fails when you try to change to a directory. Thus you can't get a directory and file listing for that folder.
The above was done in PuTTY to show that 'ls -la' is actually returning something. WinSCP fails on receipt of the first line instead of parsing the rest of the results.
