Yes, and I have had no problems.

So, I have to say that I am not certain what you are doing, but it 
appears that you are trying to use an FTP site that you have to log in 
to.  I have not tried that yet.

Remember that you should use the FileManagement profile for FTP.

If I go to a not log on site, it works correctly.  Would you please try:

	ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/

This should show a bunch of folders.  If I click on one of them, it 
opens, no problem.
