Wow, FileZilla’s bundled installer includes a malware downloader and the dev defends it horribly.

If using FileZilla, uninstall and find something else. Even if this issue is fixed, the morally ambiguous and defensive response is very concerning.

I hope he comes to his senses. First rule when you find yourself in a hole, quit digging.

I love Filezilla and use it all the time and it is GPL. I hate malware in bundlers. I never let software install other software. If I want to install software I go get it.
