I'm not sure if this URL means that W3 wants to use ftp.  It's a
strange URL.

Normally, file://host/path/to/file means to try to contact the host
using any protocol available.  This often includes ftp.  Now, your URL
looks strange, but it could be that some program intuits a host name
`C' or `C:' from this.
