This is the standard method of doing non-anonymous FTP using URLs. To make things more complex MSIE does not appear to support authentication on proxied FTP URLs so the proxy can not cleanly ask the browser for authentication when receiving a "login failed" message from the FTP server. Many other browsers do seem to support this, and is used by Squid if you request ftp://user@host/ (without password). Regards Henrik
