I call FiFTP from a batch file.
The first thing the batch file does is create a flag.
Then it calls up FiFTP.

Also, this problem happens even when I turn off the startup file.

I will just have to keep playing  with the settings until I get it working better.
But since I have 2 lines, the extra time online isn't a problem aside from
being annoying.

Very normal, and is a function of how busy the system is.
