Hello Francois,

OK,  after  another  series of tests it turned out that I have no idea
what the problem is. The user could find out that:

-  using  a passive connection  to transfer any file of a certain size
(maybe  larger  than  38Mb but maybe 37.9999Mb) causes a failure under
unknown  conditions (the ftp client hangs).

I sent your OverbyteIcsFtpTst.exe from the 7th version package to test
it on that damn computer and it also fails. Besides, it seems to have
a bug: there seems to be no way to initiate binary transfer. It always
opens ASCII transfer, even if binary checkbox is checked:

< 150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for ocb.exe
