@Jfk, yeah. I understand, just felt that he should release the source cos I got the impression he felt the source was bad, source does not hurt servers, people hurt servers...
Not sure if that analogy works but you get the idea.
Anyway I tested this out on a few friendly servers, two of which we well configured and the door was closed on my IP after only the 3rd failed attempt, the third was deliberately miss configured, and the app gained access after only 25 minutes.
We also noticed that with a slower attack rate, the app causes less of a digital finger print which in a lot of cases is actually a good thing, slower is better when you don't want to be noticed.
This is a lot like My Stumbler, you can try the same thing you have a good handle on the code in Max, what I did was setup an edit box to hold, names, one for passwords, and I then setup a 3rd for Proxy IP's socks 4 and 5.
My app then tried 2 passwords and then randomly grabbed a new proxy IP and tried another 2, this is normally enough to freak out the server and you should get banned, it needs to be done slow tho so the cracking time goes down, and you do create a much bigger footprint due to lots and lots of connections from multipull IP's however, if your writing this to test your own FTP server which I am assuming you are ;) - then you should give it a try.
