Cut the guy a little slack, Wood.  Yeah, it's been around forever and a day, but maybe his e-mail will cause someone 
reading it to go looking in their Enterprise for it and find some moron webmaster using it on an Internet-facing 
server.  If so, he did some good. Relax.

your serious??
this issue has been arround for about 10 years...
try googling "ws_ftp.ini" where you can simply drop the
ini in your ws_ftp folder, convert the hashes or import into your
favorite ftp client that supports ws_ftp.ini style format.

Hi,

WS_FTP is a popular & feature rich ftp client. It
makes upload/download as easy as drag & drop. But
mostly peoples using this forget that it creates a log
file with name ws_ftp.log. This file holds sensitive
data such as file source/destination and file name,
date/time of upload etc., People when use this to
upload files to their website, never know that along
with other files even ws_ftp.log file also gets
uploaded to the webserver, making it globally
accessible.
