I have also seen this problem, again using SOCKS5. I've determined it is caused whenever a site entry is specified by a hostname rather than an IP. When attempting to connect one of 2 things will happen:

1) Multiple echos of SOCKS: Connecting to hostname.com:port
followed by nothing, software doesn't hang but doesn't actually connect either.

2) flashfxp will close and return to desktop.

This has only happened since updating to 3.4, with 3.2 I could connect to the exact same sites with no problems, changing the entry for a site from the dns name to its IP allows me to connect with 3.4

Nothing else has been changed except updating from 3.2->3.4 , all other aspects of ftp sites, networking and OS setup is unchanged.
