Web folders for Explorer/Office are implimented using WebDAV.  See 
http://www.webdav.org/.  In apache, you need to use mod_dav, which is 
included in 2.0 and available as an add-on for 1.3.

<Directory /path/to/required/directory>
    WebDAV On
</Directory>

For example, if your docs are in /usr/local/apache/htdocs, that would be
<Directory /usr/local/apache/htdocs>

I do?
