AFAIK? I dunno what that means. Any idea if there is a fix planned or
if
they're working on it?

Greetings:

We are having the same issue, but have found that any virtual directory
will
not open at all! With IE7, if a user goes to our default FTP site, the
can
click the Page . . . view in Windows Explorer and it works.

Most of our ftp sites are virutal directories so a client logs in as
"jondoe" and will be automatically redirected to the "jondoe" folder.
Now,
this isn't working.

IE 6 works fine, WS_FTP, filezilla and Firefox, but IE7 tells us to
pound
sand.

Anyone know of a fix or workaround for those types of customers that
may
not
be tech savvy and need a simple drag/drop?

That is what I'm saying/agreeing with. Many end users don't know the
difference between Internet Explorer and Windows Explorer. I'm
sure
if I
asked all the employees at my company to open Windows Explorer - half
would
open Internet Explorer.


I'd rather just say - something like -

This is a secure site, click on View - Open FTP site in Windows
Explorer -
they wouldn't have to leave the application and open Windows
Explorer -
chances are they wouldn't know they had - and I would have to assume
they
had the address bar visable in Windows Explorer.

Mm... if they use IE7, I believe they already got the msgs shown in
your
subject, asking them to use Windows Explorer instead.
If normal ftp client, you can configure ftp welcome msgs, etc.

Thanks. Yeah, it makes sense but it is frustrating especially
since
the
instructions are a little off when my clients hit my site. I
guess I
should just ask how to place better instructions for the client to
see
if
they go to my FTP site.

LOL... this is really IE issue. As IIS Ftp was not the one
changing.

Thanks - I'd say it is both an IE7 issue and an IIS issue as I
don't
have this issue when I go to apache FTP servers.

Nope. this is IE7 issue, it doesn't behave as IE6, hence it is
telling
you to use Windows Explorer instead.

We have an IIS site running under windows 2003 server. People
who
have "upgraded" to IE7 are now upset that they get "To view
this
FTP
site in Windows Explorer, click Page, and then click Open FTP
Site
in
Windows Explorer" when they go to our ftp site. Is there
something
we can change in IIS to correct this so we don't piss off our
clients?

Thanks
