As I mentioned earlier, I recently installed OpenDOS on my friend's odd
Gateway machine. Yesterday, while playing Freecell he got a message that
an application had violated system integrity and needed to be rebooted. When
he rebooted, all of the icons were gone.

Looking around, I see all of the .GRP files are now zero length with a
date and time stamp of about the time Freecell exploded.

I haven't the foggiest what's going on yet, nor how I am going to fix it.
However, since the machine never did this with MS-DOS, OpenDOS is the leading
suspect...
