RE: [squid-users] ie6 ftp ignoring proxy?

This is a known bug/feature in IE 6. I have some MS info on it
somewhere.

Try disabling the option in IE internet settings -> advanced settings:
"enable folder list for ftp sites" ( or something like that, I dont
know the exact name because my IE is in spanish)

I had a strange behaviour in IE6 when this setting is set ( by default).
IE tries to get the folder lists direct from the ftp origin server. If
he cant get the lists because ftp access is denied, it timeouts, and I
get an error page.
