In Windows Vista in windows Explorer, I cannot get to Add Network Location.
I have tried to Map to the ftp drive but that does not work either. I do not
want to use IE7 then switch to Windows Explorer.

But MS claims that using Windows Explorer instead of IE is an improvement...
It's more secure...even though it's a PITA.
That's one of many reasons why Vista is only on one of my machines and 200+
are still using XP, and 45 have been converted to Linux.
