BodySuitMan: since you asked so nicely, i will show you

take for example, if you wanted to be able to browse an entire drive from the music section (yes, you do have to do each section seperately) you would edit the part of the sample config file that says

     <share>
       <name>HDD</name>
       <url>e:\music</url>
     </share>


so that it said

     <share>
       <name>HDD (E)</name>
       <url>e:</url>
notice there is no \ here
     </share>


now you are able to browse the entire e:, if you wanted to add f: you would simply copy the above and change e: for f:, like so

     <share>
       <name>HDD (E)</name>
       <url>e:</url>
     </share>
     <share>
       <name>HDD (F)</name>
       <url>f:</url>
     </share>


list all the drives you want to be able to browse for each section and you're set
