I gave up on it, I have this running every 10 mins via wincron instead:

 @echo off
CD c:\ftp-server\ioFTPD\system
pslist ioFTPD > nul
IF ERRORLEVEL 1 GOTO restart
GOTO RUNNING

:RESTART
echo ioFTPD not running, restarting >> c:\FTP-SERVER\ioFTPD\logs\ioRunning.log
echo |time |find "current" >> c:\FTP-SERVER\ioFTPD\logs\ioRunning.log
start ioFTPD.exe
GOTO END

:RUNNING
echo ioFTPD already running >> c:\FTP-SERVER\ioFTPD\logs\ioRunning.log
echo |time |find "current" >> c:\FTP-SERVER\ioFTPD\logs\ioRunning.log

:END

Ugly but works
