Your question doesn't have a simple answer. The problem is that we can't reproduce the problem on any of our systems. We don't recommend removing any firewall that may expose your computer to harm. Some software firewalls work better than others, and hardware firewalls work much better than software firewalls. However if the firewall isn't properly configured it's not doing much good.
The majority of the people I've talked to don't have any problems with FlashFXP and this MS hotfix or ZoneAlarm. This problem seems to be limited to a select group of users.
