I guess this is more related to the WebDAV client that you are using than to the WebDAV server (here Jackrabbit). Jackrabbit does not control how the client opens WebDAV files.
I don't use Windows, and I don't know how good the built-in WebDAV client in Vista is, but the Windows built-in clients had a lot of issues. Try another webdav client (but I can't recommend one).
