Shimano STI question?

I put a set of Shimano 600 brifters on my 600 equipped Waterford Paramount. I had a set of 105 brifters on it originally. The 105's were for a triple front, the 600's are for a double. I am finding it difficult to get it properly adjusted due to fairly short cable pull in the brifter. I found some instructions on the Park Tool site that helped, but the whole thing worked better with the triple brifter on the front rather than the double.

In perusing ebay, I found a listing for the same FD that I have that says it is not suitable for STI.

Ebay listing HERE

What I would like to know is what FD is suitable for STI if this particular model isn't.

Thanks!
