Parallels seems to insist on putting a Windows drive icon on my desktop even though I've turned off Mirror Windows Connected Drives to Mac. I share my desktop using Dropbox (see http://www.zdnet.com/article/beyond...top-and-documents-between-macs-using-dropbox/ if you want more details) and these folders cause havoc with Dropbox, which attempts to backup the entire virtual drive. How can I turn this off? I'm guessing the Mirror option I mentioned isn't the right way. Thanks.
