The problem with that is that it sends blank passwords when you're not
connected.
Depending upon what client (Win98, ME, 2000, etc...)YMMV.
Once you make an FTP connection, it becomes part of the registry and
attaches it to "My Network Places". If you close your browser window,
your 'sent' password is blank until you 'login'. When you open Windows
Explorer and your Explorer searches the network, FTP sites are included
and a login attempt is made.
Check the logfiles of the ftp server. I see it on Windows servers
WinNT4, 2000, 2003 and VSFTPD on Linux
