Back when I started using OS/2, the alternative was Windows 3. IIRC,
Windows still requires file extensions.


I think that is to prevent the delivery of malware.exe as pr0n.jpg as
Windows [generally, in it's default configuration] lacks better
security methods. Of course, since XP the default has been to hide
extensions, so the name pr0n.jpg.exe would still get by.
