ftp sites and konqueror

[Rick Miles]

I noted today that I was not able to open folders when accessing an ftp site with 
a vanilla configuration of konqeror in kde-4.2.3. It seems that konqueror falls 
open trying to open a file when I click on a folder om ftp sites.

For example: once logged in I was presenetd with the following in an information 
popup:

"Open 'ftp://ftp.rickmiles.com.au/public_html/turtlespond/gauri'?
Type: folder" and presented with the options: "Save As...", "Open with 
`konqueror`" and "Cancel"

When I select "Open with `konqueror`" I get an erro popup telling me (in this 
instance): 

"ftp://ftp.rickmiles.com.au/public_html/turtlespond/gauri is a folder, but a file 
was expected."

I have tried this on several public ftp mirrors as well thinking it might have 
something to do accessing my own website but I get the same result no matter what 
site I go to.

In kde-3.5.10 konqueror navigates ftp sites the same as navigating through 
directories on this box. There is no information popup. Konqueror just opens the 
directory when it is clicked upon.

Has anyone else tried using konqueror on ftp sites with kde-4.2.3?
