I am using proftpd, and have attached the config file to the end of the email. 
But what is probably even more useful for you is that I used a recent default 
install of xampp 1.5.1. From 
http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-linux.html

downloaded from one of the mirrors at:
http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-linux.html#374

Installed as per:
http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-linux.html#377

Then started the services as described here:
http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-linux.html#378

I used the defaults for everything so if you install it you should have the 
exact settings I have for proftpd. Then you'll even be able to test Quanta.
After this installation I loaded up Quanta then created a new project using 
the ftp protocol, and entered "localhost" as the server, then set the main 
directory to / (Quanta was able to browse the files in the directory). I 
didn't add any files/folders to the project. I then made a simple php script 
of <? phpinfo(); ?> then saved and selected to add this to the project. 
That's when Quanta cpu usage rocketed and was the last I heard from it. I 
left it going over night incase it managed to do something but it was a 
definate crash.

XAMPP appears to work like a charm and I can browse http://localhost and 
ftp://localhost using Konqueror to upload and change files, just Quanta seems 
to hiccup.

This made no difference.

********************************************************************************8
PROFTPD CONFIG
********************************************************************************8
# This is a basic ProFTPD configuration file (rename it to 
# 'proftpd.conf' for actual use.  It establishes a single server
# and a single anonymous login.  It assumes that you have a user/group
# "nobody" and "ftp" for normal operation and anon.

ServerName			"ProFTPD"
ServerType			standalone
DefaultServer			on

# Port 21 is the standard FTP port.
Port				21
# Umask 022 is a good standard umask to prevent new dirs and files
# from being group and world writable.
Umask				022

# To prevent DoS attacks, set the maximum number of child processes
# to 30.  If you need to allow more than 30 concurrent connections
# at once, simply increase this value.  Note that this ONLY works
# in standalone mode, in inetd mode you should use an inetd server
# that allows you to limit maximum number of processes per service
# (such as xinetd)
MaxInstances			30

# Set the user and group that the server normally runs at.
User				nobody
#Group				nogroup

# Normally, we want files to be overwriteable.
<Directory /opt/lampp/htdocs/*>
  AllowOverwrite		on
</Directory>

# only for the web servers content
DefaultRoot /opt/lampp/htdocs
#DefaultRoot /home/sniff/website/dev

# nobody gets the password "lampp"
UserPassword nobody wRPBu8u4YP0CY

# nobody is no normal user so we have to allow users with no real shell
RequireValidShell off

# nobody may be in /etc/ftpusers so we also have to ignore this file
UseFtpUsers off
