I've got a questions that I hope has a really obvious answer.

When I access an internal FTP (IIS) site form a Windows 2000 machine using IE 6 I get different views depeing on which machine I connect form.

e.g From User A's machine I get a normal explorer style view and I can drag and drop files onto folders.

From User B's machine I get a 'more traditional' view when foldes are show as links and I can't drag and drop files onto the FTP server.

Anybody have any ideas why?

cheers

Probably has to do with the Folder View settings in Control Panel. One computer is probably set to use traditional views while the other web views.
 
thanks for the response.

I've just checked and both machines have the same settings there. :(
 
Is Enable folder view for FTP sites option in IE's Internet Options..., Advanced menu set the same for both PCs/users?
 
that's the one .... thanks for your help.
