Hi. Before IE 7 i was a happy IT dude. Users logging on to my Windows 2000
FTP server, with their own username, ended up in the directory with the same
name as their username. But with IE 7 they end up in the root directory,
showing all other ftp folders (customers). It looks like directory browsing.
Do any one have a workaround for this? I need each customer to end up in

End up at root? haven't tested with IE 7 yet.
but this is client side issue, try IE 7 forums.

We are getting the same behavior. This is terrible for us. Even if we
don't use IE7, we can't control what our customers use. Does anyone
have a suggestion on how to lockdown our FTP server? It appears MSFT
just shot our security all to hell with IE7.

I'm not sure what's the deal with IE7.
But if it does shows all user directories, you can still restrict users
access by applying proper NTFS permissions.
