bugs in TSVNCache

Hi,

I have some bugs with TSVNCache.

1. It locks files on my removable drive, stopping me from unmounting it,
even though there are no svn repositories ever been used on that drive
(there might be backups of working folders, but they have never been
used on that drive)
2. It causes an explorer crash when browsing a windows networking
network share with very large files in it

In both cases, the problem does not occur if i manually kill TSVNCache
first.

A workaround might be for TSVNCache to kill itself off after a
configurable period of idleness (15 minutes?)

An alternate fix might be for TSVNCache to only cache or lock files on a
drive letter where there has been recent svn activity, and not every
single drive where there might have ever been be .svn folders, but has
never been explicitly opened in explorer.

Alternately the timeout might be put on the locks being held, rather
than on the TSVNCache program itself.

Cheers
Brett
