I've heard that Microsoft has changed that rule for security reasons. I
think it no longer searches the local direcotry *first*. It will search
for it there eventually, but only as the last resort. I think its first
choice is \Windows\system32\ but I don't know its full search path.
I did a small test on XP Pro with all service packs. This is the order:
mbx folder
mapinfow.exe folder
windows/system32
windows/system
windows
PATH environment
I think this is how it's always been. There is also the "current dir", but I
was too lazy to test that one.

Uffe
