Perhaps something along these lines..
I know that when I put Mac files on my FAT (DOS formatted) USB
stick to transfer stuff to a Windows box, Icon_ file(s)
sometimes appear for reasons that are just too much for my brain
(I think?). I noticed it this morning.
I am trying to think how it happened? At least I noticed it when
I tried to delete a whole folder, it was not in there before as
far as I know. And then it was, after all the rest of the files
inside the folder were successfully purged by the FTP program
after I selected the folder and used a command "Delete" from a
context menu. A notice came up saying folder could not be deleted
because a file, Icon, could not be found. I thought to myself how
pathetic. If it could not be found, why the hell did the folder
not get deleted anyway, what use is this ghost like object to man
or beast. I tell you, this is really spooky stuff.
