If, in Nautilus, you open the location <a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="ftp://user:password@server/">"ftp://user:password@server/"</a>... what is actually done is that the ftp session is opened on the server, indeed, but the user name that is sent is "user:password"... not "user". So if your user "USER" has a password "PASSWORD"... when you do open <a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="ftp://USER:PASSWORD@x.x:x:x/">"ftp://USER:PASSWORD@x.x:x:x/"</a> then the ftp server at x.x.x.x asks you for the passord of the user "USER:PASSWORD". Since there is no user called "USER:PASSWORD" (at least I assume this is the case on your system) then of course, whatever password you type is always incorrect, and the server keeps re-asking for a password, so Nautilus keeps prompting you again. My intuition is that either Nautilus doesn't accept "user:password" syntax in FTP for security reasons... or there may be a flag to set to enable it... or this is a bug, in Nautilus.
