In reply to Suggestor. While that's true it would be more correct, on Windows, it's hard coded in the .NET 4.0 framework to be a ":". :) (And this call wouldn't make sense on anything but Windows with a mapped drive letter, so portability really isn't an issue).

Should use this:

IO.Path.VolumeSeparatorChar

instead of a hard-coded “:”c

Wouldn’t it be easier to use the WNetGetUniversalName API?
