You _know_ I like to experiment. I learn a lot that way.

Why? ICON.cmd uses the WPS, not the Desktop.

Oh Goodee! Another experiment!

I'll let you know if it kills the Desktop.

Okay, thanks, but I have to stop fiddling with this for a while.
Important things need to be done -- like eat lunch.

I like to ask questions. I like tangents.

Steven, I _do_ appreciate the help you're giving me. But I'm "in the
lab" with this thing, and I might as well check and test everything that
I can think of while I'm working on it.

Maybe I should rename the UNIMAINT directory from a command line. The
WPS won't know about the change, so it won't be able to access the
UNIMAINT directory's EAs. So then I can click on the UNIMAINT icon --
if it still freezes my system, I'll know the freezeup isn't caused by
the EAs. Yes?
