hello love my product use it hours everyday. that being said the main irritant of this program is the steps to turn passive mode on and off. I would really like to see a toggle switch right up top with my other buttons.. turn on passive mode and turn off passive mode. would be a real time saver!

why are you constantly switching it on/off?
you correctly set it once and your done.

:D lets say i am checking alot of different servers and as such some like the passive some don't. I find on some servers that with passive on it drags it's feet horribly or I get errors listing the directories, turn it off however and things will fly thru and list rapidly.

following MxxCon, i also think you'll probably run into 1 active connection ftpd to 100 passive ones.

actually it's other way around...
too many stupid people run servers w/o properly forwarding ports, so pasv connection won't work.
if PORT mode works on one site, it will work on all(99%) sites. so there is really no need for you to constantly changing it.
