<DIV><FONT size=2>Prior to using IE5.0 to access any FTP-site, I was using the

<DIV><FONT size=2>all can imply the binairy or Asci as one of the 2 transfer

<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>But basicaly, IE5.0 with its Windows copy&amp;paste routines 
has already, for the user, outsmarted the <FONT size=2>very</FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2><FONT size=2>old 1960-1970&nbsp;command </FONT><FONT

<DIV><FONT size=2><FONT size=2>like users&nbsp;these</FONT></FONT><FONT

out.</FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Now with this particular "binairy or Asci" mode is the

<DIV><FONT size=2>on a download by IE5.0.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Not your fault, as IE5.0 works with the&nbsp;ASCI connection

<DIV><FONT size=2>mistaken, these type of UNIX binairy files are not in&nbsp;a

<DIV><FONT size=2>and&nbsp;only stem from and work on&nbsp;that&nbsp;particular

<DIV><FONT size=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>The "Illuminati Online's Anonymous FTP site" you mention, will

<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Obviously, from all of the above, you did not have a Direct

<UL>
  <LI>On some FTP sites, you can only view or download files. Only the people 
  who run or own the site can rename, delete, or upload files. 
  <LI>On many FTP sites, you are automatically logged on anonymously, so you can 
  view or download files. To upload, rename, or delete files, you may need to 
  log on using a special username and password. Also, different areas of the 
  same site may require different logons. 
  <LI>You cannot move files within or between FTP sites. You can move files from 
  an FTP site to a temporary location on your computer or a network drive and 
  then upload them to another FTP site or different folder on the same site. 
  <LI>Some programs may support opening and saving files from FTP servers by 
  typing an FTP address in the File Open or File Save dialog box. </LI></UL>

<H1><FONT size=4>What you need to know about FTP</FONT></H1>
<P>FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol. A protocol is a language that enables 
computers to speak to one another. FTP is used to make files and folders 
publicly available for transfer over the Internet. In some cases you may need to 
get permission from the network computer's administrator to log on and gain 
access to files on the computer. But often you'll find that you can use FTP to 
gain access to certain networks or servers without having an account, or being 
an official password holder, with that computer. These "anonymous" FTP servers 
can contain a broad range of data that is publicly available through FTP.</P>
<P>The Internet address (URL) for an FTP server looks slightly different from 
the URL you use for a typical Web page. For example, Microsoft has an 
"anonymous" FTP server at ftp://ftp.microsoft.com, where you can download files 
ranging from product fixes, updated drivers, and utilities, to Microsoft 
Knowledge Base articles and other documentation. </P>
<P>How much access you have to files and folders on FTP servers depends on 
whether you gain access to the servers through a CERN proxy server or directly, 
and what kind of permissions you have with the FTP server. </P>
<P>
<UL>
  <LI>Access through a CERN proxy server is limited to viewing or downloading 
  files. You cannot rename, upload, or delete files or folders through a CERN 
  proxy server as you can through other types of proxy servers. For more 
  information, see: 
  <P><A href="mk:@MSITStore:C:\WINDOWS\Help\iexplore.chm::/ftp_cern.htm">Access 
  FTP sites through a CERN-compliant proxy server </A></P>
  <LI>If you gain access to FTP sites directly, you can work with files and 
  folders on the FTP servers much like you work with them on your own computer. 
  You can view, download, upload, rename, and delete files and folders. If you 
  need permission from the FTP server to perform any of these actions, you will 
  be prompted to provide your username and password. For more information, see: 
  <P><A href="mk:@MSITStore:C:\WINDOWS\Help\iexplore.chm::/ftp_dir.htm">Access 
  FTP sites directly </A></P></LI></UL></DIV>

  <LI>In the Address bar, type the Internet address (URL) for the FTP site you

<P class=otherh>Notes</P>
<UL>
  <LI>On some FTP sites, you can only view or download files. Only the people 
  who run or own the site can rename, delete, or upload files. 
  <LI>On many FTP sites, you are automatically logged on anonymously, so you can 
  view or download files. To upload, rename, or delete files, you may need to 
  log on using a special username and password. Also, different areas of the 
  same site may require different logons. 
  <LI>You cannot move files within or between FTP sites. You can move files from 
  an FTP site to a temporary location on your computer or a network drive and 
  then upload them to another FTP site or different folder on the same site. 
  <LI>Some programs may support opening and saving files from FTP servers by 
  typing an FTP address in the File Open or File Save dialog box. </LI></UL>

<H1><FONT size=4>What you need to know about FTP</FONT></H1>
<P>FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol. A protocol is a language that enables 
computers to speak to one another. FTP is used to make files and folders 
publicly available for transfer over the Internet. In some cases you may need to 
get permission from the network computer's administrator to log on and gain 
access to files on the computer. But often you'll find that you can use FTP to 
gain access to certain networks or servers without having an account, or being 
an official password holder, with that computer. These "anonymous" FTP servers 
can contain a broad range of data that is publicly available through FTP.</P>
<P>The Internet address (URL) for an FTP server looks slightly different from 
the URL you use for a typical Web page. For example, Microsoft has an 
"anonymous" FTP server at ftp://ftp.microsoft.com, where you can download files 
ranging from product fixes, updated drivers, and utilities, to Microsoft 
Knowledge Base articles and other documentation. </P>
<P>How much access you have to files and folders on FTP servers depends on 
whether you gain access to the servers through a CERN proxy server or directly, 
and what kind of permissions you have with the FTP server. </P>
<P>
<UL>
  <LI>Access through a CERN proxy server is limited to viewing or downloading 
  files. You cannot rename, upload, or delete files or folders through a CERN 
  proxy server as you can through other types of proxy servers. For more 
  information, see: 
  <P><A href="mk:@MSITStore:C:\WINDOWS\Help\iexplore.chm::/ftp_cern.htm">Access 
  FTP sites through a CERN-compliant proxy server </A></P>
  <LI>If you gain access to FTP sites directly, you can work with files and 
  folders on the FTP servers much like you work with them on your own computer. 
  You can view, download, upload, rename, and delete files and folders. If you 
  need permission from the FTP server to perform any of these actions, you will 
  be prompted to provide your username and password. For more information, see: 
  <P><A href="mk:@MSITStore:C:\WINDOWS\Help\iexplore.chm::/ftp_dir.htm">Access

Hi,
<p>What is the meaning of a beta and delta rating? I know that Alpha refers
to the stock volatility in comparison to the rest of the stock market.
<p>Thanks,
