Now that you mention it, I seem to remeber that *.pif was some sort of
windows excecuatable file. I did an explore search and it was described
as a shortcut to an MS-DOS execuatable.

I remeber something in Win 3.1 that you greated a PIF file(i think
thats what it
was)to enable a short
cut.Same thing maybe????
Norton did not find mine,but i'm slow on the updates sometimes.The fix
and patch seem to
have worked.
