A. If you access an FTP site that doesn't allow anonymous access, you must provide a username and password. To access an FTP site anonymously from IE, use the syntax
ftp://ftp.<site name>.com
To pass a username and password, the syntax is
ftp://<username>:<password>@<ftp site>
For example, to access the Internet Software Consortium (ISC) ftp site, you might type
ftp://john:[email protected]@ftp.isc.org
where "john" is the username and "[email protected]" is the password.
Similarly, to pass just a username, you can use the syntax
ftp://<username>@<ftp site>
