After updating to RC2 of FileZilla 3 Client it will no longer connect when using SSH authentication. Connecting with the same key from the same computer with FileZilla 2 works OK, as did the previous release of FileZilla 3
Here is the connection log:

Starting filezilla.exe either directly or with shortcut generates this error message:

For this session the default settings will be used. Any changes to the settings will not be saved.
As a result, the settings are dropped, and any settings entered cannot be saved. This bug appeared suddenly, without any cause that I can identify. It could not be corrected by uninstalling and re-installing, and it could not be corrected by downloading a new setup file and re-installing that. I will answer any questions that would help de-bug this. Thanks for helping.
When uploading a file, if the FTP server closes the connection, FileZilla client asks me for my password in a popup for immediate reconnection.
This is annoying when the FTP server systematically closes the connection (for example because I have exceeded the limit of simultaneous connections and the server has put me on a 10 minute timeout). FileZilla's password popup steals focus from the main window so that it's impossible to stop the queue processing. Trying to close the popup just makes it open again immediately. Effectively the only way to escape the situation is to close the popup as many times as there are files on the queue.
