	Just a reminder that this trick will not work work with System 6.0.x as
Apple has decided that it's System should do 'virus protection' of it's own.
What this boils down to is that any Init/cdev/rdev, etc. in the System Folder
which is invisable will NOT be recognized by the INIT31 (Init Loader) mechinism
and so will not be loaded.  

Just wanted to point this out before people started trying it with System 6.0.x
and wondered why it didn't work!!
