tries to go to the root directory.  Can anyone verify that it would try
to go to the root directory???

=====
"Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the 
Almighty.
This I declare of the Lord:  He alone is my refuge, my place of safety; he is my God, 
and I am trusting him…"

Psalms 91:1-2 (New Living Translation)
