Naming a file with only an extension and no name

[Guest]

I am wondering if this is a feature of the OS. I can create files that are
simply called ".mp3" on the desktop and such but in windows XP this is not
allowed.

The files work when moved to an XP machine, just you can't create a file in
XP in the same manner. The XP OS will complain there is no file name.

Is this a bug?

Sounds like one. Did you report it?
