Subject: Window's O/S

Confirmed on Windows XP SP2 (English Version).

I still can't understand why that happens. I tried doing the same
thing using different folder names of default Windows application
executables (wordpad, iexplore, etc...) but it doesn't work.

Also tried creating another folder on the Desktop *after* creating the
one named "notepad". The trick still works in this case as well.
