   GARBAGE.
   
   FileZilla 2.x used to be the best. Thanks to the stubborn author and clearly poor programming and regressing bugs, FileZilla 3.x is irreparably ruined. A damn shame.
   
   Use alternatives like WinSCP.

   Reviewing 3.5.1 RC1 (Aug 22, 2011)

   I used to be a big proponent of FileZilla until it was brought to my attention that it will store passwords in cleartext in a file (sitemanager.xml) that any user with access to the machine can harvest. That is bad and the author says it's by design. As a client, it does the job, but for that security hole that is many, many years old, it gets epic fail. If the author ever fixes the security hole, I would be happy to give it 5 stars. But for continuing to make the excuse of "by design", two stars off.

   Reviewing 3.3.4.1 (Sep 17, 2010)

   Nice, reliable transfers, and for some reason it uploads faster than any other ftp client I've tried.
   
   Substracted 1 star for three reasons:
   
   1. If I get an ftp URL in email from a client of mine, in the form of
   ftp://user:pass@ftp.host.com/some/path/file.txt
   I cannot just paste the URL and have the download start (the way I can in Total Commander, for example). You have to manually aplit the URL into part and create a new site in the site manager first. This is a task for software, not human fingers.
   
   2. You can add frequent locations to bookmarks, but there is no "recent connections" feature. Most of the time you have to go through the site manager again. At least do away with the modal dialog implementation and put the sites in a side panel in the main window, so that it can be accessed and browsed quicker, without the modality.
   
   3. The "Network configuration wizard" always ends up with a failure for me, which would suggest that there's something wrong with my connection - but the actual real-life connections and downloads work flawlessly. So why does the wizard spell gloom and doom?
