When you drag a file or a folder over another folder icon and pause 
(500ms I think), a new window opens showing the contents of that folder 
so that you can navigate to further nested folders before finally 
dropping your file/folder. Once you've dropped your file/folder, all the 
windows that were opened in this manner are closed -- "springing" back.

Ciao,
Gordon
