My guess is that there is some setting, perhaps in your browser but possibly
in your firewall, that is denying you FTP access.

My copy of IE7 gives me direct access to the FTP directory without launching
a separate FTP client. When I look in my browser settings under the Advanced
tab, I see that I have "Enable FTP folder view" checked - maybe that might
have something to do with it(?).
