  Hi there,
  There is no FTP access to our free hosted WorPress.com blogs like http://creamabuscaro.wordpress.com/ and we bloggers can’t install plugins for security reasons. http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/ Also note that there is no upgrade you can purchase that allows FTP access and the ability to install plugins. Only those with WordPress.org installs can use plugins http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  The site linked to your username is not a free hosted WordPress.com blog. You are posting to the wrong support forum. WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate. See here http://wordpress.ORG/support/ and if you have not registered a WordPress.org username account yet you can do so on the top right hand corner of the page I just linked to so you can post to those support forums.
