The snapshot I downloaded earlier this week shows IdFTP.pas last modified on
September 18, 2007.

The version number is stored in the IdVers.inc file.  To check the version
that is installed, you can right-click on any Indy component that has been
dropped on a Form/DataModule that is loaded in the Designer.

When the Passive property is True, TIdFTP establishes an outbound connection
to the FTP server for each data transfer.  When the Passive property is
False instead, the FTP server establishes an inbound connection to TIdFTP
instead.  So it could be that the server's inbound connection is being
delayed when reaching out to TIdFTP.  Are you behind a router/firewall?
