Strange and deadly file name / folder of the root problem. Help, please!

Hello. I wonder if someone could help me!

I'm on CS4, but this problem has happened yet in CS3. When I created a new site in Dreamweaver, I go through the usual motions by selecting the local root folder and the images folder. Then when I go to the new site how to create a cache of the original site as usual. After that (when I try to download anything for example) the cache seems to have disappeared (for example all files disappear them in DW). He told me that I should go through the implementation of the process of site once again, but this only ends up going round in circles!

Curiously, when I look at my HD in the finder, Dreamweaver has created a new folder named "Macintosh HD" and inside follows the same structure of exact file that 'real' local files unless the Web site files do not exist in the root folder.

I don't understand what is happening here. I suspect that it is perhaps something to do with the locations of files and relative / absolute which connects to the hard drive?

Please help if you can! Thank you.

What is a real exact path to a local site folder?

Are there "funky" characters as empty space left in the hd
name, or a sign of punctuation or above ascii in a folder name?

Please follow these steps:
Open a new empty html file using the file-> new
--> do not save this file<>

Type some text in Design view
Select the text, and then create a link to this site "homepage" file using the
link icon of the folder in the property inspector

View code and copy the code from this link and paste it into the answer.
It should be a local absolute path as
file:///harddrivename/users/username/folder/folder/index.html
