in thread Prevent windows dialog when using file test -e

I don't get the dialog on WinXP and perl v5.8.0. I just assumed different drives behaved differently.

    Have you worked with the drives before and then eject the media ? On my machine it happens only in this case (on XP, never seen it under 2000). I use mostly perl 5.8.8, also it is from inside a wxPerl app (dont know if it makes any difference)
