| | LOOP HOLE----microsoft windows dear all
good one, try this....
A small kid discovered that nobody can create a folder anywhere named as "con"
This is something pretty cool... and unbelievable...
At Microsoft the whole Team, including Bill Gates, couldn't answer why this happened!

These are MS-DOS device names hence reserved… It's a known issue. Here is the complete list......
"CON", "PRN", "AUX", "NUL" "COM1", "COM2", "COM3",
"COM4", "COM5", "COM6", "COM7", "COM8", "COM9",
"LPT1", "LPT2", "LPT3", "LPT4", "LPT5", "LPT6",
"LPT7", "LPT8", "LPT9"
So you cannot create folders with those names...
Try with the above...
Cheers

Typed and waited for few minutes. Nothing happened. Am I missing something?

| | Re: LOOP HOLE----microsoft windows Hey ppl,
try this out too....
Something really interesting to share with you all.
Try out the following steps and see what happens...!
You will have to then ask one question. Whether its a GOOGLE Failure or a US Failure?
1. Go to www.google.com
2. Type "failure" (without double quotes) in the search text box.
3. Press "I'm Feeling Lucky" button just next to "Google Search" button.
4. See what happens. Find it out yourself and laugh a lot. (Do not worry, its not going to harm your computer.)
5. Share it with your friends and relatives before GOOGLE fixes this bug.
7. Enjoy......
Cheers,
Pallavi
