I have XP with SP3, and the mapping to the FTP site works mentioned at the start of the article does work. Maybe you should try the directions first before complaining!

Great, another once-existent feature no longer supported by Windows. Isn't functionality supposed to go in the other direction? This is the second reminder today of why my open source stack at home is choice.

Hi please update this post with instructions on how to do this on XP using IE 8. There are a lot of old Microsoft docs and kbs that use this method, XP and IE, as one of the crucial steps in troubleshooting their products. Last I saw XP was still a supported MS product. So now quite a few troubleshooting docs and kb's are broken. Please also update the related kb articles. Using this method to troubleshoot EAS does not work and is not a viable solution.

Dude, this only works for me if I'm ACTUALLY ON THE NETWORK that I'm connecting to. The purpose of the web folder is that I can access my stuff from elsewhere. How do I get my webfolder that isn't "read-only"? FAIL FAIL FAIL!

Hello? Microsoft? Anyone home? Anyone monitoring this site? Is anyone going to respond to the dozens of questions above?
