Newly mapped drives don't appear automatically

I have several Win2K SP3 IE55 SP2 builds which don't automatically
refresh explorer when a new network drive is mapped. The drive maps
fine; it should then insert the entry into the list and open a new
explorer window with the contents of the new drive in it. Instead, I
don't see the new drive until I manually refresh the explorer window.
I've ruled out Active Desktop.

Anyone seen this before? There seems to be scant reference to it
across the internet at large. Many thanks for any help you can offer.
 
There are some post SP3 Shell32 Updates, so you might want to change to SP4
and then retest.
