"Great, but with a serious catch!"
Version: FileZilla 3.6.0.2
Pros
Fast and easy to use. Displays a readable log of what is going on.
My favorite it the use of multiple tabs. You can keep more than one site open at a time.Cons
BIG Problem. Passwords are NOT encrypted. They are in a simple .xml file (sitemanager.xml). Anyone that breaks into your machine, can also have access your ftp accounts!

Bitter sweet.
