In windows subversion stores some things in C:\Documents and
Settings\<profile name>\Application Data\Subversion while the
equivalent in unix/linux is ~/.subversion/
Is it possible you've somehow got unix/linux home directories mapped
on those network directories? Deleting them just means you destroyed
any cached passwords or configuration that was setup in them. I'd
also assume its possible that a windows client could be specifically
using its own seperate config for subversion and creating a
.subversion directory somewhere for it. However since you gave no
info as to specifically where you were finding these directories....
