RE: Microsoft's fix for URL containing username:password@ obfuscation

After reading through the MS advisory in more detail it doesn't actually
mention ftp at all.
This was kindly pointed out by several FD readers :) 

I will wait and see if the patch just "fixes" http and https before
worrying about it in earnest.

And for people saying don't use IE, if you aren't the sole admin on the
server you don't have the choice to install other apps.
Believe me if I could install something else I would just put a real ftp
app and firebird on there and not have to ask silly questions on FD.

Cheers
