Firefox-3.x wil happyily popup the ftp:// auth dialog if the proxy-auth header is sent. There were a few bugs which got fixed in the 3.1 re-writes and made squid start to send it properly. It's broken in 3.0, not sure if its the same in 2.x but would assume so. The fixes done rely on C++ objects so wont be easy to port. Amos
