Hello!
Please try my latest netrw; several changes have been made lately to
help support Windows + cmd.exe users. Its available at:
http://mysite.verizon.net/astronaut/vim/index.html#VimFuncs as
"Network Oriented Reading, Writing, and Browsing"
Its up to v100d.
I've been experiencing the same issue Noah described (with Vim 7.0 on
WinXP Pro set up using the .exe installer) and v100e doesn't seem to
make the problem go away for me.
For what it's worth, I've noticed that when a file's opened, the
tempfile created is being named something like "VIC104.tmp.txt" (where
".txt" is the extension of the remote file), and when it attempts to
write it looks for "VIC104.tmp" - note the missing extension. This seems
to occur even when I've completely deleted and reinstalled Vim, so I
don't *think* it's some kind of esoteric hidden setting.
Hope this helps.

Of course, I don't know how interesting any of this really is,
but now you've got it in your brain cells so you're stuck with it.
