Ever wondered how many open FTP servers there are?
Especially hidden down some deep directory structure, some directories even named .. and . to try to hide themselves.

I recall other folder names that would presumably make windows machines throw up when you clicked on them. Stuff with "LPT:" or "COM:" in the names.

Warez ftp sites used to use high ascii in the file names. Used to have that memorized.
