RE: Ever wish for a "snappy reply" key on your keyboard to respond to Windows warnings or alerts.

That Windoze "feature" of hiding known file extensions is what facilitated the "I LOVE YOU" virus a few years back that cost home and corporate users billions of $$$ in damages worldwide. The email attachment was "I LOVE YOU.jpg.bat" with the ".bat" being hidden.

That is one of the first things I change on a new Windoze install along a with a few other default Windoze settings.
