If you are using netscape and need a password, you should be 
prompted for one...  If you want to include in the URL this is 
the format:

	ftp://USERID:PASSWORD@ftp.something.something

Thia also works with http locations that need a password. 

HOWEVER:  Your userid and password are on the screen for anyone 
to read over your shoulder.
