What media file is it stored where? I don't recall that specific icon
offhand, but I believe it's indicating special data about the file that you
might find useful.

Sure appreciate your interest and suggestion, but I could not find anything
in this particular link that explained the shift in file icons.
Thanks,
James

Ignore the link. That's a standard UseNet ".sig". Just pay attention to
the question. =)

I am not sure I understand the question but, here goes!
The files are WMV, MPEG, AVI, ETC. They are stored on my D drive which is my
second hard drive.
