are you sure this is right? I quite remember share access being enforced 
on directories

You cannot open a directory for a real read or write operation. This
attributes are still ignored. Possible vfat must call IoCheckShareAccess
for directories with a modified value for DesiredAccess. The ext2fs
driver from Matt Wu does this.

yes you can, read access at least (required to list the contents). And 
you can read data from them (not quite sure what kind of data is 
returned). Tested on Windows 2000

It isn't right. I've test it with a sample on xp.
