Read Only?  On WinXP it acts "just" like another explorer window.  Drag and
drop to ftp.  Kinda nice!

  Like Dave says, HTTP and FTP are fairly different protocols. Different
  command sets, different ports, etc. Microsoft has simply added a "helpful"
  feature to IE that lets you browse FTP servers through an artificial
  read-only HTML-like interface. (I haven't tried it in ages but it might do
  GOPHER:// as well.)
