ftp downloads no sacnned by http proxy?

Christof
If i downlaod the eicar virus testfile per http the virus scannner found the virus, everything is ok. But i if download the same eicar testfile the per ftp in a browser (IE 6.0.2800) i can save without any notification or quarantine from the http proxy! But the help button in http proxy configuration says that the proxy scanns http and ftp traffic. What' s wrong? Using ASL 5.103

    No, i am using http proxy in standard mode. I think https will never be scanned, because its encrypted.
    I testet the settings Extras->Internetoptions->Advanced "Folder view for FTP sites - disable" in my IE 6.0.2800 browser but i can download virus testfile.
    I have sniffed the connection with ethereal and i am sure the proxy will be used and there is no direct connection.
    Actually the browser has downloaded the virus testfile from the proxy cache? I see it in the network sniff:
    X-Cache: HIT from xxxxxx
