Re: WARNING: Be careful if you try to download filezilla
I had been using FireFTP for quite a few years, until our host renewed their internal, cPanel SSL a couple weeks ago. For some reason which no one has found resolution, FireFTP refuses to allow "accept an exception" to the certificate.
I was able to download FileZilla directly from SourceForge. There was a notice that you WOULD be OFFERED other 'stuff', similar to that when you update Acrobat or other popular applications. It was just a matter of unchecking the boxes on a couple of screens.
Now, IF I used the link to SourceForge from the FileZilla website (as the OP suggests), red bells, flags and whistles were set off by McAfee that the redirect was not safe. It did not go directly to SourceForge.
I want my FireFTP back.
