Can't See Mapped Network Folder

Anyone know why I can't see 2 Mapped folder (n:\ and m:\ in my case) in My Computer but if I write n:\ or m:\ in the address bar i can browse inside them ?
I've a Windows 2003 Server Standard Editions Domain Controller with several Windows XP.

Thanks...

Luca,
in URL convention (used for internet names) the first item before colon is protocol (example http://mydomain.com).
So you can write M:/myfolder but you have translate this in approrpiate way.
Insert any html file into mapped drive then open it and see how Win2k3 server translate URL

Sorry, i try to explain me better. I mean the shared folder mapped in My Computer.
I can't see that volumes listen after the cdrom device and the hard disk device in My Computer, but if i write m:\ or n:\ into the address bar of the window i can acces to the contents.
