Vista is mapping unwanted and unassigned network drive letters
After I have been logged on to the office network and working for a short period I notice that there are drive letters added to the Computer window. These drive letters have never been assigned by me and there is no logon script running on the server. This is extremely aggravating and I have not been able to stop this activity. The OS is creating drive letters for network server shares that I do not want. How do I get rid of the action and stop ot from happening?

Hi, Thanks for posting! This issue may occur by the following factors: The drive you search contains shortcuts that specify a target location that uses a network drive letter instead of a universal naming convention (UNC) path (for example, \\Server\Share) You index a drive that contains shortcuts that specify a target location that uses a network drive letter instead of a UNC path Disable Windows Search to check the result.

When you say Disable Windows Search, what exactly does that mean? How does one accomplish that task?
