OH BOY! Something I just discovered about XP that I REALLY like!

How often has this happened to you? You select all files in a folder because you want to copy them, and most are EXE files. Then you accidently double-click on them.

Windows - paragon of Operating System Technology that it is - STUPIDLY tries to execute 100 EXE programs. ARGGHHHH!!!!!!

Well I just did that on my system for the first time since installing XP and something interesting happened. A window popped up warning me that I was about to execute more than 8 EXE files at the same time and that this was really not a good idea. Was I sure I wanted to do this?

FINALLY! About friggin' time Microsoft fixed this problem....

I did that once. ONLY once! lol. Back on my 486 running win95. That thing sat there ticking away for about 15 minutes before it was usable again. Never dod it again hehe

I still get that occasionally in xp (maybe a hidden setting?)

I have a tendency to just del-enter without thinking and sometimes my fingers are faster than the os and it just catches ther enter
