fish == ssh+scp
fish://user@domain/path/file
for info on ssh and scp you can use the following in konqueror...
man:/scp

In order for fish to work you must have ssh and scp available on the server 
and they must be compatible. FTP sends passwords in cleartext and encrypts 
nothing so ssh/fish is definitely more secure.
