Quanta & kio slaves (kio_ftp)

Hello,

I've a big problem with the kio_ftp slave under KDE 3.5.7 release 56.1, but 
this happened with all previous versions of KDE.

When I use Quanta Plus to edit a file on my website, saving the file causes 
multiple instances of kio_ftp to be opened and many simultaneous FTP 
connexions are established between my computer and the server. Some servers 
doesn't like it and blacklisted my IP address.

So, as I would like to continue to use Quanta Plus to edit and work on some 
distant files by FTP, I would like some help to answer to one of these 
questions... namely :

1) Is there a way to limit the number of simultaneous FTP connexions that 
Quanta/kioslave/kio_ftp is allowed to use ?

2) Is there a way to force Quanta to use another way to communicate by FTP 
with the server than the kioslaves ? Would Quanta be able to use the 
bash "ftp" command in a konsole, for instance ?

3) If you don't know answers to the previous questions, maybe you know the 
right place or the right man I should ask... Could you help me ??

Thank you very much for your help !!
