Bug in smbclient

OK. I think I'm starting to figure out how to use smbclient, but
now I've run into a really annoying non-feature.
I'd like to alert some of these folks that have been infected wih
the Qaz virus that they are infected. I thought that this could
be a simple matter, *if* they were opening sharing their C: drives.
I found at least a couple of infected hosts that are indeed sharing
C:, so I used smbclient to attach to one of them.
Now I need to get this guy's e-mail address, so that I can mail him
a message, telling him he's infected with Qaz.
I think that I fugured out where his e-mail address might be stashed
on his disk drive. It looks like he's got Netscape installed, and so
I surmize that his e-mail address is probably stashed in some preferences
file, somewhere in the vicinity of:
C:\Program Files\Netscape\Communicator\
I'd like to go snooping around in that directory, and see if I could
find it, but there's a problem... smbclient doesn't seem to grasp the
fact that nowadays, filenames on Windows can contain spaces. Thus, I
can't even `cd' into the `Program Files' directory! Humph.
Have any of you got a fix for this?
