Default Passive mode switch
hello love my product use it hours everyday. that being said the main irritant of this program is the steps to turn passive mode on and off. I would really like to see a toggle switch right up top with my other buttons.. turn on passive mode and turn off passive mode. would be a real time saver!

why are you constantly switching it on/off?
you correctly set it once and your done.

lets say i am checking alot of different servers and as such some like the passive some don't. I find on some servers that with passive on it drags it's feet horribly or I get errors listing the directories, turn it off however and things will fly thru and list rapidly.

actually it's other way around...
too many stupid people run servers w/o properly forwarding ports, so pasv connection won't work.

if PORT mode works on one site, it will work on all(99%) sites. so there is really no need for you to constantly changing it.
