Yes, go into the control panel, then you want folder options. 
Tell it to reuse the same window.

In "My Computer" / Windows Explorer.

Tools->Options, on the General Tab, in the "Browse Folders" Frame, Change the option to "Open Each Folder in the Same Window"
I was trying to dereference Null Pointers before it was cool.
