Initializing Connection

When making a connection from my WinXP box to another PC running FreeBSD 6.2 and Pure-FTPD I receive an error message, highlighted in read, that reads: "534 Fallback to [C]" sans quotation marks.

The entire login looks like this:

Is this anything I can fix, or should I just ignore it?

Hello ..

Your server doesn't support/offer private (secured) data connections that's why SmartFTP falls back to a clear (unsecured) data connection. This behavior is controlled by a FTP server setting.
