 The method System.IO.Directory.CreateDirectory() does not throw an
 exception when creating a directory, which allready exists as a file with
 the same name (tested on Linux and WinXP with Mono 0.28).
 
 I've tested it with MS .NET 1.1, it has the same behaviour. So it seems to
 be a problem there too :-).

+I did some investigation on this issue. I too found that .NET 1.1 and 
+Mono are behaving in same way. But, .NET 1.0 throws IOException when 
+you create a directory with a name by which a file already exists. 
+So, it depends on which version of .NET is correct.
