A tech guy at the ISP told me that this is because BBEdit's FTP uses
EPSV and he hasn't found any way to switch it off either.
The tech guy at the ISP doesn't know what he's talking about. :-)
1. BBEdit only uses Passive FTP if you have the "Passive FTP"
option turned on in the FTP browser at the point of
clicking the
"Connect" button.
2. BBEdit doesn't use EPSV. It doesn't expect the server to
support EPSV. It doesn't send the "EPSV" command. Whatever your
problem is, the server's (lack of) EPSV support and BBEdit's
(non-)usage of the EPSV command are not involved.

The appropriate thing to do here is to go back to the beginning,
look at the symptoms that are actually occurring, figure out
what's causing them, and fix the problem. Randomly changing
bytes in the application in the hope that it will fix something
will simply create other problems.
At this point I would suggest making sure that both settings of
the "Passive FTP" switch in the browser window give the same
symptoms. If they do, the odds of it being a server or firewall
problem are pretty good. Using Interarchy to examine the network
traffic between BBEdit and the server would probably shed some
light, but it's probably easier to examine the problem from a
high level first.

Someday I'll look back on all this and laugh... until they
sedate me.
