Description dmosses 2008-06-05 11:20:07 UTC
When opening a project in 6.1 under vista, if you navigate to the desktop the file system browser tree contains 
invalid entries for user home and public shared folder items.  Clicking on these causes them to be disappear.

Steps to reproduce:
- Start Netbeans
- Click file menu->open project
- Click 'look in' drop down and switch to 'Desktop'
- navigation tree below displays:

*- Computer

I wondered if this might be an issue with permissions, but I have turned off UAC, and have also tried running netbeans 
as administrator with the same issues.

Also, the appearance of the missing folders seems intermittent - most of the time they don't appear, but sometimes 
I'll get one or the other.

Dafe, it seems to problem of the dirchooser itself, nothing to do with projects.
