Problem: After updating Filezilla, Filezilla shows '''ENETUNREACH''' error, connecting to ''every'' known-good FTP server in your list (although localhost works), and you are using '''Kaspersky''' antivirus. Up until FileZilla 3.10.3 (2015-03-29), Kaspersky was not a problem. Starting with FileZilla 3.11.0 (2015-05-19) (and 3.11.0rc1 before it), Kaspersky's incorrect filtering breaks FileZilla. (Explained in [https://forum.filezilla-project.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=37103 this forum thread].) FileZilla is a fine product. Do not abandon it because it breaks under Kaspersky. There is a work-around, in case Kaspersky never fixes their folly (detailed in [https://forum.filezilla-project.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=37103 this same forum thread]). Kaspersky seems a decent product. Do not abandon it because they messed up on FTP filtering. These Kaspersky setting changes let FileZilla 3.12.0.2 (2015-07-09) work in spite of "Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 for Windows" (Kaspersky KES 10.2.1.23 20140317). (Tested on Windows 7, 2015-08-09.) *Double click on the red K icon in the tray ("notification area") (near the clock). This pops up the Kaspersky window. *Click the tab "Settings". *Click the category "Anti-Virus protection". (It expands.) *Click the item "Firewall". *Look to the right window split. (There are three buttons. Each selects a tab of the same popup.) *Click the button "Application network rules...". *(The list seems unsorted.) Click on "Application" to sort. (It might update slowly.) Click "Application" again to get an ascending sort. *Find the category "FILEZILLA PROJECT". Click on the + to is left. (It expands.) *Click on the "item filezilla.exe". (The window splits to make room for an info panel.) *Click the button "Additional...". (A window "Application control rules" pops up.) *Click on the tab "Exclusions". (6 checkboxes are all blank.) *Click to check "Do not inherit restrictions of the parent process". *Click to check "Do not scan network traffic". Kaspersky menus can vary by version or product. In [https://forum.filezilla-project.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=37103 this same forum thread], DailyLama's post on 2015-07-29 14:17 (which revealed the needed switches) shows what his Kaspersky Security Center menus looked like.
