Here is an example:

When trying to figure out directory I'm going to I tried IDQ extension and
got:

File
E:\Somedirectory\docroot\msadc\..\..\..\..\..\..\..\..\..\..\winnt\system32\
test.idq


????????

First of all you say that with IDQ you get this:
E:\Somedirectory\docroot\msadc\..\..\..\..\..\..\..\..\..\..\winnt\system32\test.idq

I find this hard to believe since NT will never show you \..\..\ kinda traversal
chars (they filter these
NON unicode encoded chars out, unicode would be ../..\..),
and another point is that the msadc directory is NOT after document_root
directory but it
is on c:\program files\common files\system\msadc and another point is that
winnt\system32
will not be found on drive E: (at least not with normal installation).




So msadc directory isn't always directing to sysroot.

It is.
