From: Jan Bottorff [mailto:janb@pmatrix.com] Note that Windows NTFS volumes have always had n-fork files. Fork names can be arbitrary length strings. The accessing syntax is "filename:streamName".
... and if you still have any Microsoft Internet Information Server 3.0 systems out there (or unpatched IIS4 if I remember correctly), you can request http://myserver/fileWithPasswordIn.asp:$0 (or some similar) to bypass Active Server Page processing and get the raw program file. Implementors of other network protocols please take note :-).
