As well a the risk involved in the use of the app. I don't care so much
about patches to apps that primarily involve off-line uses. However, FZ
is ONLY used for on-line connections to servers and file transfers, and
as such is a prime target for hacking exploits. The fixes that I read
address this (and occasional expanded capability, which is less
important to me). You can ignore that risk if you wish, and I'll
continue to accept the updates.

Neil brings up a good point about FileZilla being *sometimes* used for
on-line activities, but, as it turns out, at least for me, FileZilla serves
absolutely zero on-line purposes for me.

I don't know of a single FTP site that I have login credentials for.

I didn't consider that some people would use it for in-house functions,
as you are doing, so...I would modify my sentence to read:
"If FZ is used for on-line connections to servers for file transfers
and as such it is a prime target for hacking exploits and should be kept
up-to-date."
