Hello,
Squid supports only hftp I believe which is what browsers use to access FTP.
In IE under the settings option there is a
option called "Enable FTP folder View". I believe this option causes IE to bypass the
proxy settings for FTP setup by
the user / admin.
So you would be better off leaving frox setup and having it do transparent proxying
and only have the browser configured
to use squid for HTTP/HTTPS.
That is what happens here since most users have that "Enable folder View" option
enabled.
Michael.
