Hi,
Try... After accessing the ftp site, go to IE> Page> Open FTP site in
Windows Explorer.

Option 2... Go to My Network Places> Add Network Place. Follow the wizard to
add the FTP site. The URL format
ftp://username:password@domain.com should work.

If Network Places isn't on the desktop... Display Properties> Desktop>
Customize> check it.

> What does the ME in my example indicate?
It's just the name of the directory set aside for user ftp accounts. Logging
in takes you to your specific directory/folder.
