Enable folder view for FTP sites

[Dave Stephens]

I represent an organization that still has numerous NT4 workstations. I am
trying to connect to an IIS ftp site using Internet Explorer 6. Some can
connect and show a folder view, some cannot. I've noticed that the NT4
workstations that cannot connect - DO NOT have the "Enable folder view for
FTP sites" option in the internet options Advanced TAB.
How can I add this option? Is there a registry tweak?

thanks,

Hardly. Unless you have Office installed you are going to have to
uninstall IE6, install IE5.5, activate Web Folders, then reinstall IE6.
