ABF, that's because you typed in the address without adding "FTP://" in front of it. Do that and IE goes into FTP mode (since it finds the FTP site at that address). Don't put in just the straight address up there or it will probably just load the http site by default if it has one (which apparently it does).
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
