i need a simple way to put a shortcut on a desktop that when clicked opens windows explorer to a network (\mynetwork) and authenticates. it sounds like it would be easy – a c# console app – but I am not sure where to start with this.

I ended up adding the login info to the cred manager using this:
http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/CSRunProcessAsUser-e4b10d6f/sourcecode?fileId=23561&pathId=1786330904
and running explorer.exe using process.start and supplying the \networkaddress
as args to the processinfo for process.start
