    little Challenge(winxp)

    Challenge
    On windows XP try creating a folder that appears to have no name!
    See the attachment for more info.
    Note: this has nothing to do with the alt+255 thing

    Alt+0160 works but only for folders as far as I know.

    LOL, old programming trick. You have to use command to do it. And basically use a programming trick to get a space to be used as a file name. Here's how it works

    Open your command prompt and type the following

    mkdir \" \"

    Note there is a space inbetween the sets of the symbols \"

    whereever you type that, there iwll be a folder that is make that has no file name. And to delete it you have to do the same thing, just use the rd command instead of mkdir. The \ symbol escapes the meaning of the quote, which allows this to happen.

    Sorry I can't explain it that well, it was a trick I leanred a long time ago. Good brain teaser for a school admin that knows nothing about comptuers though < April Fools trick LONG time ago > Because you can't delete the folder in windows or command prompt unless you use the \

    Formatting my server because someone hacked into it sounds pretty boring to me...
    That\'s why it\'s all about AntiOnline.com!    [/shadow]

    to go a step farther you can make a hidden directory (with no name) by using non ASCII characters. Just look in the back of your Windows manual and it should have a listing of differant combinations that make up symbols and what not. Just use those.

    I know that it worked in Win98, not sure about WinXP
