Problem: IE5 doesn't uses proxy for FTP connection if the option
"Enable folder view for FTP sites" is checked. This option is
checked by default.
Configuration: tested in 2 configurations:
1. Windows NT 4.0 wrkst + SP5 + IE5.0
2. Windows NT 4.0 wrkst + SP6a + IE5.01
both has a problems.
There is no problem under SP5 + IE401SP1a
Description:
FTP proxy address is set in browser configuration (or option "use
one proxy for all protocols" is checked), but IE5 doesn't uses the
proxy for data connection, but tries to use direct connection
instead. Since IE5 uses active ftp mode and couldn't be configures
to use passive (that isn't good) this fact makes problem for
firewalling.
