I know :)   I don't allow incoming connections to any internal machine 
anyway as they're all using PAT to make outgoing connections, so that 
prevents active FTP anyway. But disabling this option also stops me from 
allowing active FTP should I need to set up my own FTP server - not 
necessarily a bad thing though.
