ha ha. Seriously tho, just posting a list of MS-DOS filenames is rather useless as filenames do get changed. It is highly likely that a sysop or user might have changed the filenames to something else, especially if their operating system supported filenames longer than 8 characters.

I'm interested in the source of that probability calculation. In my experience, sysops dealing with a large volume of files normally don't bother to change the names of a few of them, unless they see a compelling reason to do so. --Mike

I suppose my choice of words was bad, but it does happen. You're right, most sysops don't change the filenames. Usually the filenames get changed when someone is moving the image to a different computer platform, such as an Amiga user uploading a GIF to a IBM-compatible BBS where the OS differences would necessitate a filename change. And of course there are some punks who just change the filename to get more upload credits on ratio systems. I didn't mean to put down the EFF's efforts to protect sysops, I was just pointing out the possibility for potential problems.
