When I got my unprotected version of DPaint the first thing I did was copy
it to my hard disk. (And several art disks too) When I booted it up there
was no Paint Can! Then I booted it from the original disk and there was
a Paint Can! Comparision of the two disks revealed that the only difference
was the existence of :lo-res/paintcan (or whatever it is called) versus
:dpaint/lo-res/paintcan which was how it appeared on the hard disk. 

Conclusion : if it can't find it, it won't open it.
