Curious ftp problem with squid 1.1.3

Scenario: Client is Windows 3.1 Internet Explorer 3.0 (version 3.0.1152)

Client clicks on a link in a Web page to ftp://somehost.com/path/to/foobar.gqa

Internet Explorer reports "The attempt to load 'ftp://.../foobar.gqa failed"

The problem can be fixed by:

* turning off proxy access (hence squid is implicated)

-OR-

* renaming the file to foobar.bin

-OR-

* using the Macintosh version of Internet Explorer 3.0

in which case it downloads properly.

Strange, huh? Any ideas?

Thanks

Tim
