Retrieving Security Zone for My Computer   

Hi,

I'm using the following code to retrieve the security zone of shell items:

CComPtr<IInternetSecurityManager> pInternetSecurityManager;
CoInternetCreateSecurityManager(NULL, &pInternetSecurityManager, 0);
CComPtr<IShellItem> pShellItem;
SHCreateShellItem(NULL, NULL, reinterpret_cast<PCUITEMID_CHILD>(pIDL), 
&pShellItem);
LPWSTR pURL = NULL;
pShellItem->GetDisplayName(SIGDN_URL, &pURL);
DWORD zone = 0;
pInternetSecurityManager->MapUrlToZone(pURL, &zone, 0);

This works for items that are part of the file system. For virtual items 
like My Computer, Recycle Bin, Control Panel and so on, the code reports 
zone 3, which is the Internet zone. Windows Explorer reports these items 
as being in the "My Computer" zone.
How do I retrieve the zone correctly? Or is the zone of virtual items 
hard coded?
