Ok... First, thanks to all of you for your assistance. I'm using IE 6 SP1. I found no 'Passive FTP' setting in the advanced options section. I DID, however, get the thing to work by turning OFF the folder view. Strangely enough, when I was finally able to log on using that account and password, it was a 'folder view' that I got. Incidentally, you may be interested to know that Opera has no problem with this - it works just as it should. Thanks again to all of you for your kind assistance. Greg

Already tried that! Actually, that was the first FTP related thing I did when I signed up. I really like this service and the cpanel, by the way. Greg

You know, I've tried just about every possible iteration/combination there is. This is the best I get: FTP root at my domain.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 02/19/2003 10:55PM Directory bin 02/19/2003 10:53PM Directory etc 02/19/2003 10:53PM Directory lib 02/19/2003 11:05PM Directory mail 08/22/2001 12:00AM Directory pub These don't correspond to anything on my domain, and it doesn't pop up any sort of login to get here. Greg - who is completely stumped.

Tried ftp://****/files - I get the 'page cannot be displayed page'. Any other ideas? Thanks. Greg

Greetings! If a person sets up a new FTP accound, for example "stuff", and sets a password, say "password", a directory is created in public_html called "stuff", and that directory can be accessed with an FTP client with the user name "stuff@****" with the password "password." I've done this, it works perfectly. But shouldn't there be a way for a visitor to access this area through either IE or Windows Explorer too? I've tried logging in with these programs and can't seem to make it work. It seems to me the url in IE should be "ftp://stuff@****:password@****/files". I've tried countless variations on this and encounter errors or non-connections every time. What am I missing here? Thanks for any assistance. Greg
