Because a PIDL is relative to the actual object that is displaying the
target object.  Since your path is being shared by multiple objects, you are
going to get multiple PIDLs, one of each of them.  A PIDL only has meaning
in the context of the object that created it.

For "Network Neighborhood" itself?  Use SHGetSpecialFolderLocation() with
the CSIDL_NETWORK flag.
