lftp

[Elaine Normandy]

Thanks for the reply.  Although I could have sworn that I had never used 
lftp, I found that I had done so in a script that gets called from my 
cron to copy down a backup file from my remote web site.  I had just 
never noticed lftp in my process table before it was broken.   Good to 
know that it is in fact broken: I recoded my script to use curl.
