It seems xplorer2 has a sense of humour

Post by TychoQuad »

I was at a lan the other week, and I was having a bit of network trouble. Forgetting that I couldn't use windows networking due to this, I tried to access a friends' computer over the network. After double clicking on his computer, xplorer2 thought about it, and I got an error sound and

"Attempt to access (friend's computer) failed miserably" appeared in the statusbar.

My friends and I had a laugh at this, and it led me to wonder, why can't more programs use more friendly messages like this? then I thought, does xplorer2 do more of this?

reminds me of a "cookie" in 2x; bLameMessages under Right Pane Settings (likely to offend some types!)
