This situation occurs because of a feature in the File menu of SSH. The File -> Save Settings option causes the current settings, in addition to the window positions, the quantity of windows, etc., to be saved. Thus, if you choose that option while an FTP client window is open, then the next time you open any variant of the SSH Secure Shell client, the FTP client window will open (and vice versa). In order to rectify the situation, open only the SSH telnet window and go to File -> Save Settings.
