If you enter an url like ftp:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/,
you will receive a standard authentication dialog
with the user name filled in.  You can choose to have
it remember your password.  I assume it uses the normal
FTP authentication messages.  What I can't figure out is
how it decides between BINARY and ASCII mode.  It gets
confused enough that I stopped using it after the first
day.
