Another concern I have w.r.t a project I was working on earlier is an 
access restriction issue on NTFS. Apparently in Win2K/XP Pro - with NTFS 
you may be trying to list the contents of a directory but your 
application does not have permission to do so for this path. Normal 
Permissions that can exists are read/write/execute/list contents etc.
If the list contents is not allowed the search API will fail, or at 
least not list anything.
