MSInfo Files, what's the use.... ???

Tue Feb 13, 2007 7:58 pm

Hello :)

as I take subtitles (french and english) on your site,
(thanks by the way!)
sometimes I also get "Document MSInfo" files with my sub downloads...
And was never able to read what's inside...
windows tells me unknow files...! :shock:
Ok I would like to know what's the use for them...
(and may be how to read them!)...
my pc : xppro with all genuine licenced programms like Word, Access
(office xppro 2002) and the rest of usual stuff...

If you're kind enough to give me the infos, that's great !

Best regards from Geneva Switzerland

:D

smiles!!! :D
if you would have all the ones I like, no prob..
for the moment, (may be fortunately) no site has all of them...
but (very kind of me, joking!) you're the site where I pick
most of them...
To inform you, subbies gives (almost always) links for the downloading to your site ! :lol:
