Another Windows98 Bug (Cont'd)

[smc () visuallink com (Scott)]

    The easiest way to get rid of one of these files with an 'extra long'
filename, is to drag it to the recycle bin (that seemed to work fine for me)

All I did to create the long filename is right click on the desktop
filename, go to 'rename', and copy and paste chr(160) many times until
nothing would paste anymore.  (note: this DOES work with other alpha-numeric
characters.  This must just be bad error checking by Microsoft

I used Start->Find, and located the long file, I clicked once on it to
select it, and Find crashed, but Explorer didn't seem to crash (or give me
any errors)
Also, I renamed an executable file to give it the same size long filename,
leaving the last 3 characters as '.exe'.  Explorer didn't crash when I
clicked on it, the program ran fine, and menu didn't come up when I right
clicked on it.

Shortcuts do not seem to be affected by it, but I did try another file type
with an association (.jpg), and it ran the program associated with it, but
wouldn't let me right click on it.
