Cannot access certain network resource through iTunes [UNSOLVED]

I'm trying to access a network resource called \\VBOXSVR in iTunes. I can see it in Windows Explorer but not in iTunes.

Things I've already tried:

• Refreshing the folder view
• Re-opening the "Open iTunes library" window
• Restarting iTunes altogether
• Typing \\VBOXSVR in the browse window (result: one of those "network path could not be found" errors)

While I was trying to access the resource in iTunes, I had no issues manipulating the network resource through Windows Explorer.

Update: a reboot of Windows seems to have resolved the issue partially. At this point, I'm not entirely sure if the odd behavior has been fully corrected.

The problem still exists. The network resources are now mounted as their own drive letter, and I'm seeing this:

Any thoughts?

I found this Microsoft KB article, but it didn't resolve the issue.

Programs may be unable to access some network locations after you turn on User Account Control in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

Also, launching iTunes with elevated privileges still produces the same behavior.
