That was the question though, unix.

of course not, uou have missed out the machine name component.
it should be
file:///D:/test.xm
with an empty machine name between the // and the first /
as in my third example that you quoted.

file:///usr/docs/x.xml
      ^

No, both of those are incorrect. IE actually corrects that user error
for you and changes \ to / but it is not obliged to.
