Important security fix in FileZilla 2.2.8

Recently, a security vulnerability in PuTTY was found (read 
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for details) which 
allows attackers to execute malicious code on anyone using PuTTY.
Since the SFTP support in FileZilla is based on PuTTY, FileZilla was 
vulnerable as well if connecting to SFTP servers. Version 2.2.8 of 
FileZilla fixes the security holes.

Here's the complete release notes:

New features:
- experimental IPv6 support, only works under Windows XP or 2003 Server 
or newer. Based on patch by Yi-Kwan Chen
- Timestamps in message log
- added IBM MVS support
- On VMS based servers, display of all file revisions can be enabled

Fixed bugs:
- fixed security issues caused by PuTTY
- File transfers did not work on servers returning unquoted paths in the 
PWD reply
