WinXP file sharing - Mapped drive vs UNC path?
I've got a few PCs in work that are giving me a bit of a bother...

I've setup filesharing on one PC and tried to setup a mapped drive to it...but it freezes the machine once I click on the mapped drive, can't even right click and go into properties.

BUT, if I open up My Network Places, I see the drive share and can navigate no problem...but when I map it...the freezes the PC to the point of having to kill explorer.exe

Any thoughts?
