OMFG Rob, so this was the case. I just recently had the same issues with my sites as it got exploited and they were injecting this php redirect script to all my sites. I was going fucking nuts. My hosting company was not doing shit for me, so I changed my hosting but I am still using filezilla, but this time I am NOT saving the passwords in filezilla. It always asks for PW when I log in. Finally an answer to my question.
