I noticed this bug in previous versions as well as the latest final I think. When I do basically anything with the left or the right mosue button (selecting a file in the main two windows, selecting a queue item, ...) while downloading and keep holding the button, the transfer just pauses until I let go of the button.

With the right button I don't even have to hold it, just right-clicking some file in the main two windows and keeping the right-click menu open pauses the tranfer, until the menu closes. Can this be confirmed and is there anything that can be done about it ?

Thanks.

Tried another ftp and the problem was gone, but when trying again with the first one, the problem persists. The only difference is, this bug only happens to me on the ftp with SSL on (AUTH TLS, secure listing and file tranfer).
I have OpenSSL 0.9.7c 30 Sep 2003.

As far as I know, FFXP uses WSAAsyncSelect() to manage to handle sockets asynchronously. When you press mouse button down, you're flooding application's message queue with messages, which have higher priority messages than socket notification messages. Result: socket notifications will not be processed.

Okay, but why does this only happen during SSL sessions. And holding down the mouse button is sometimes a must, primarily when holding the sidebar when scrolling down/up the log.

Not sure.. ssl is more cpu intensive?
