IE7 cannot display folder for FTP

[Eric]

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make IE7 display FTP folder?
instead of using window explorer?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions

I am using XP, there is an option to select msieftp.dll for FTP address. but
when I change to this option, which cannot be saved, and the FTP displays all
files in text format, just like UNIX system.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thank everyone very much for any suggestions

First I'd recommend that you bone-up on how FTP access has changed in IE7;
cf. http://msmvps.com/blogs/spywaresucks/archive/2006/07/01/103612.aspx

NB: Although Sandi's blog entry was posted during IE7 Beta, the behavior
hasn't changed in IE7 Final.

Also consider reviewing these archived thread in IE General:
