Cursed filenames

[Guest]

If I pick any files on my XP, rename it to one of following names, it will
disappear immediately. I found this problem when I compiled OpenSSL 0.9.8a
recently. I have successfully compiled it last October.

Any tip is appreciated.

bftest.exe
bntest.exe
casttest.exe
destest.exe
dhtest.exe
dsatest.exe
ecdhtest.exe
ecdsatest.exe
ectest.exe
enginetest.exe
evp_test.exe
exptest.exe
hmactest.exe
ideatest.exe
md2test.exe
md4test.exe
md5test.exe
randtest.exe
rc2test.exe
rc4test.exe
rmdtest.exe
rsa_test.exe
sha1test.exe
shatest.exe
ssltest.exe

do you have the hide known file types enabled in the file options / view for
explorer?

No, becoz I always want to see file extensions.

Even if I checked the hide extensions option, I should see part of the
filename except extension. No I can't see anything on XP, but can see them in
DOS. If I share the folder, they can be seen from Network Neighborhood.

how about hide protected sytem files - would that do it?
