That is because no one knows the definite answer. Probably because there
are too many alternative FTP implementations in IE, depending on the IE
version, configuration options and other software installed..

AFAIK no one has reported a successfull configuration of IE where it is
possible.

And per the definition of how a HTTP proxy handles requests for FTP
directories you must get Squid's FTP directory listing.

No, but you need to get IE aware that it is a FTP directory... Netscape
assumes that if it is viewing a FTP URL thant ends in a / then it is a
directory. If it is not ending in a / then it is a file.
