           Summary: Top directory with colon in name (e.g. "/F:"): The
                    file or folder F: does not exist
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: g111 at netcologne.de


Version:           KDE 4.2.88 (KDE 4.3 >= 20090527) (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

konqueror and dolphin are not able to open a directory called /F:

* mkdir /F: (important: below root "/")
* touch /F\:/foo
* Start konqueror or dolphin and try to enter /F:

=> Both apps cannot handle this directory. "The file or folder F: does not
exist" is displayed as error message. 

Maybe /F: ist interpreted as kio-protocol name?

Creating a directory "F:" in your home directory does not make any problems.
