File.exists() and File.isDirectory() calls for "A:" drive can cause a dialog box
"There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive A:" to appear.
File.listRoots() works fine in this build.
Please, see bugid#4850616 for more details.
How to reproduce:
=================
1. Install j2sdk1.5.0-b09 on Win2000 box with Netscape 7.0 installed.
2. Place into your home directory .java.policy file with all permissions enabled.
3. Copy the following applet and html files on the local disk.
4. Compile applet and open test.html. NOTE: Use desktop link to start Netscape.
You will see message
"Netscp.exe - No disk
There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive A:.
[Cancel] [Try again] [Continue]"
