FTP Suggestion

[Andrew]

Although I probably won't use FTP bug logging forever, it does work well.
For me I setup my FTP server using "Write Only" permissions so therefore
logs can only ever be saved and never downloaded from the server via FTP.

One suggestion I have is to alter EWebTools.pas like I did as follows to
allow passive FTP as this works much better through firewalls:

.....
INTERNET_FLAG_PASSIVE = $08000000;
.....
hConnect := InternetConnect(hInternet, PChar(Host), Port,
PChar(UserID), PChar(Password), INTERNET_SERVICE_FTP,
INTERNET_FLAG_PASSIVE , 0);
.....

Thank you for the good suggestion, it will be implemented in the next 5.1.7
stable version. :)
