Works fine for me.

FileZilla is not a web browser though. It is an FTP agent doing native
FTP protocol. Squid is an HTTP proxy and only understands HTTP.

FileZilla docs say HTTP/1.1 proxy supported. I'm not sure if that really
implies HTTP/1.0 proxy such as Squid are supported at all.

So...

  * Make sure that FileZilla is configured to use Squid as the HTTP
proxy (only!)
  * make a request or two
  * check your Squid access.log for that domain name and see how
FileZilla is trying to use the proxy.

If it says CONNECT, you will have to add the ports it uses (21) to the
SSL_ports and Safe_ports lists will be enough.

"acl FTP proto FTP" only covers URL with ftp:// in them. Not native FTP
nor CONNECT-tunnelled traffic.
