Ha ha! Not quite so simple, small .exe files
start with MZ. This has been a dos standard since
very early days.

If a file starts with MZ you can be pretty sure
that it is a program that does something.

So don't delete all these files from your
computer! That's all we need, an Anti-Virus
program that deletes every MZ file from
your hard disk... ;o)
