Thanks, but I'd already done that.  Inside IE6, File->Open->Browse... still
lets me walk around inside of my entire Linux file system.

I guess the question is, how do I get rid of the "/" folder (my Linux file
system) which lives inside the top-level Desktop folder?:

       Desktop
          My Computer
          My Documents
          /
           ...

If I can't, is running Wine inside of a chroot practical?

Thanks,

Randall
