Description

I was happy with this program's test at home and then
went to work and installed it on several machines.
Little did I know that when I rebooted I would have
ISTToolbar or something like that Installing on each of
these machines. When I ran pest patrol I found a slew
of new spyware (on a machine that had been reinstalled
the same day and not surfed the internet yet) and 4
trojan horses. Please get these out of the installer so
we can use your wonderful program!!!!!!

Already known, download.com staff has been notified. The
version of FZ listed on download.com is an unofficial third
party version of FileZilla. Please report this issued to the
download.com staff as well.

In future, only download FileZilla from this site, those
packages are 100% free of any malicious software.
