OK, OK, this IS driving me crazy now. What Aaron wants, while not trivial,
is also not too hard under Windows. It's called a shell name space
extension. It is built as a Windows DLL using C++ and the MFC. It is then
registered to run with IE's explorer tree. I have code that does this. The
only problem is conceptual: How do you want to map freenet to a Windows
explorer interface. This would be a fun project if someone has the idea for
how the mapping might look. If anyone is interested (Aaron?), let me know
what you interface ideas are.
