Answer 1

Silverlight is a client-side technology hence has no knowledge of server side resources. Since your hosting environment is IIS and I assume you want to determine the existence of physical path, think your best shot is to craft a Silverlight enabled web service that will expose a function checking if your desired path exists, then consume it in your Silverlight app.
