MLCad isn't the only thing that one could associate with .cgi, unfortunately.
That's why. (.Dat either..., like I said before, we can't change it but it
was a bad choice....)
I don't know if this is a change in LUGNET, or a change because I switched
from Netscape to IE a while back, but I recall (perhaps *mis* recall) that it
used to be that the extension you got was .dat... like i say I could be wrong.
