Delete Confirmation Box for Network Drives

Greetings,

I'm a programmer, so I delete various versions of my source code all day
long. Therefore, I unchecked the "Display delete confirmation dialog"
checkbox in the Recycle Bin Properties window.

However, on networked drives/shares, deleted files don't go to the recycling
bin, and that makes me quite nervous. Is there any way to enable the delete
confirmation the network shares and drives while disabling it for local
drives?

Thank you!

Eric

When you delete files from a network share, they never go in the Recycle Bin. This is by default. And no, its either or.
