I have yet to check, but it may well be specific to WIndows (as filed). In that case, it's not an xp issue but could well be fixed with my patch for bug 162361 (see also http://www.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla1.5rc2/known-issues-int.html : the last pargraph in the section 'General'). Glutexo and Eyal, what are the default system locale of your Windows XP? What were file names you had trouble with in the directory tree? If you want to provide filenames in your bugzilla comment, please make sure that you set Character Coding (View | Character Coding) to UTF-8 before typing your comment.

Quoting my XP 'Regional Settings' dialog: Standards and Formats: Hebrew Location: Israel Language for Non-Unicode Programs: Hebrew some of the filenames in my screenshot: על ה-FTAA.txt גליאנו, אדוארדו - פרדוקסים.txt ביכלר, שמשון וניצן, יהונתן - לא בועה, הונאה.doc hoping bugzilla won't choke on that...
Thanks for your prompt reply. It's strange that Hebrew characters under Hebrew locale got mangled. I don't have any trouble with Korean characters in the directory tree view under Korean locale (Win2k English version, but I changed the default system locale to Korean). I need to play with some other combinations to be sure what's going on.

My comment #5 has to be ignored. I was looking at html view. Somehow I couldn't switch to xul view. Selecting xul view in Edit|Pref|Debug|Networking doesn't make any difference at all (in 2003100404). I'll try other builds.
