Title:
  Refuses to remember custom Incomplete directory preference

Status in Linux DC++:
  New

Bug description:
  linuxDC++ 1.1.0 (Core 0.75) on Linux Mint 14.

  Steps to reproduce:-
  - Open linuxDC++
  - File -> Preferences
  - "Downloads" Tab
  - Change Directories for "Finished" and/or "Unfinished" download to a specific directory on an external USB Drive
  - Click OK
  - File -> Preferences
  - "Downloads" Tab

  What should happen?
  linuxDC++ should remember the directory it has been told

  What happens?
  linuxDC++ forgets the directory it has been told, and reverts back to home directory.

  [code]$ linuxdcpp -v
  LinuxDC++ version: 1.1.0
  DC++ library version: 0.75
  GTK+ version: 2.24.13
  GLib version: 2.34.1[/code]

  [code]$ cat /etc/issue
  Linux Mint 14 Nadia \n \l[/code]

  [code]$ uname -a
  Linux lukey-F8Vr 3.8.11-030811-generic #201305011408 SMP Wed May 1 18:09:29 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux[/code]

  Notes:
  This behaviour also seems to affect shared directories, whatever specific directory is given, it will revert to the home directory - This could potentially be seen as a serious security flaw, as users will be exposing their home folders which is almost certainly not what they were expecting.
