Not sure what you mean, when it's a mapped drive windows explorer shows it as:

MyMappedDrive on '192.168.1.201' (T:)

When clicked on it it freezes, but on a normal map drive it the explorer address bar should show:

T:\

When viewing the directory over UNC, i.e. through My Network Places, it shows as:

\\192.168.1.201\MyMappedDrive\
