Default Passive Mode

Not too sure of the cause of this problem. After some tests i was told to mention this to the developers of flashfxp.

I recently got 8mbit adsl at home but I have obtained rather dissapointing speeds (-100k/sec) from ftps located overseas from me.
Local sites (we have a state peering system in australia) were functioning at normal speeds.
Then someone suggested me to try the sites with passive mode completly turned off. This attualy worked suddenly my speeds were as they should be or very close to it. Testing this on a few more sites produced the same results (however local sites still work fine either way)
I was then told to try another client to see if I have the same results so i tried ftpRush. With passivemode it worked just fine with my connection so Im assuming its some small problem in ffxp?
My System Stats are:
amd 2800+ barton
1024gb ram
Winxp sp2
Adsl1 8mbit/1mbit
Netcomm Nb1300 adsl router

Anything else u want let me know
