Okay, if I double-click on a drive icon on my desktop it opens up a window with the contents of the drive. That is the window I am referring to. I have 2 network drives which reside on my file server set to mount in my login items. When the computer starts up, those 2 windows pop up on the desktop and I have to click the close button on each one to get rid of them. This is a PITA to me and I prefer the way networked drives are handled in Leopard better. > The state of those windows is held in the volume's .DS_Store file. > If the windows are closed when the drive is dismounted, they should > stay that way.
