Default Does anyone have the solution to stopping FileZilla from phoning home?

And...? Two people keep saying that FZ
users are in grave danger if not constantly
updating. You and Jonathan. You say you
know the specific issues/patches. So what
are they? Is there something specific that
we should know about? If so, which version
is the fix in?

Maybe some kind of FTP man-in-the-middle
attack? I can't think of what else it might be.
I'm certainly grateful to hear about serious
bugs with patches, but so far I've only
heard vague warnings and scolding, along with
your position that people should always be in
a general habit of auto-updating.
