Root URIs under Windows

[Paul J. Lucas]

Does anybody use Restlet under Windows?  I want my server's root URI  
to be a directory like:

        C:\Documents and Settings\pjl\My Documents\My Pictures\
That's held in a File variable.  I convert that to a URI then to a  
String like:

        String rootURI = rootDir.toURI().toString();

That gives me a URI like:

        file:/C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/pjl/My%20Documents/My%20Pictures/

but that doesn't work.  I get FileNotFound for all files.

What's the right way to use Windows' directories with Restlet?
