It requires me to create an MSN Hotmail, MSN Messenger, or Passport

account. I have a surfeit of web accounts to memorize, and I think the

answer would be of benefit to the members of this USENET newsgroup

instead of shut up behind a walled garden, owned by M$.

Install TweakUI

http://windowsxp.mvps.org/tweakui.htm

Highlight Explorer, scroll down to "Use intuitive filename sorting"

Uncheck it and click OK.

Actually it IS in the newsgroup, he just happened to point you at the

web interface to this USENET newsgroup. Which also happens to reside on

a server owned by Microsoft.

Oddly enough, version 2.0 was installed and had that attribute already

set before I reported the problem.

 

I checked the web page kindly provided, found a new version 2.1,

installed that, and 2.10 solved the problem.

 

Many thanks to Ben Lucas for pointing the way to the solution!
