iis ftp:
We have a small Windows Server 2000 box that runs IIS 5.0

When users click the FTP link in IE7, they can view ALL the folders!!! We
cannot upgrade this dinky machine to Server 2003 mainly because all our REAL
servers run that and we have our old Windows 2000 license running this
server. There should be no good reason to make this server be more costly
than it is worth.

I have an ASP script that allows an employee to set up an account and it
automatically creates the local user, directory, IIS virtual directory, then
e-mails them the confirmation.

This server sits on our DMZ and is an older machine, but it's worked GREAT
until all our clients and employees upgraded to IE7. WTF???!!!!

Isn't there some stupid patch MS could put out? Or Ohh.. I know!! Let's
allow people to UPGRADE the software security they have purchased! Not make
it worse and less secure!

HELP PLZ!!!! Is there any user isolation capabilities out there for us

If you are referring to IE 7 unable to redirect to home folder but stuck in
the ftp root, then this is a known issue.
This is new design behavior, why? ask IE team.
