Answer 1

If your AD is pre Windows Server 2008, you should really change your filter to (&(objectCategory=computer)(objectClass=computer)). This will take advantage of indices in the database and be much more efficient.

As to getting Shares, I've used Win32_Share before. You can use mgmtclassgen to build a strongly typed wrapper that's pretty easy to work with.
