I wouldn't expect it to be the version, WS was always well behaved. It is a
possibility though.
The change to F: failing also shouldn't be a concern, it's changing the
local drive/folder in prep for transfers, with it failing it will just use
whatever default folder is active.
Tried using PASV? I'd expect a check box in the site setup.
