I also tried this and found that it removes the entire file viewer thing on the left side of the folder. I also found that just adding a space to the end of any line in the folder.htt will have the same effect. I am wondering if there is some check that Windows runs to make sure that this file isn't changed before it executes it. (removing the space and re-saving will restore the folder to normal) I also use win2k
