I, too, had some issues connecting to shared drives on a
Windows
machine that I just corrected this weekend.  In my case, it
proved to
be on the Windows side that was the problem.  I had my hard
drive die
on me, and when I restored the OS, I didn't set up sharing
quite
right.  The problem's been corrected, although it would be
great if I
could set it up to automatically connect to that share. 
I'll look
into that Automator tip.  It didn't work the first time I
tried it,
but it now appears that it was the same Windows issue, not
the
Automator.

I have no idea what One Key is, though... I am still not as
versed on
the Mac as I am in Windoze.
