Oh, and BTW, I saw on a MS blog (while searching for something else) 
that someone complained they couldn't open "\\?\GLOBALSPACE\..." in 
.NET. The answer was "Yes, .NET checks for paths that start that way on 
purpose and refuses to open them because it isn't portable."

WTF?  This is Microsoft. :-)

So, yeah, even .NET won't let you read from shadow copies without 
dropping down into C or something.
