Those strange files on your jump drive are the result of the Finder splitting the Mac
files (with resource forks) into two files, a data file (normal file name) and
resource file
I have a USB Jump Drive -when I put files on it from my iBook running OS X
then take it to another computer (Mac or Windows) it has every file on there
twice one file will be myfile.doc and another will be _myfile.doc the files
with the underscore will not open.
Any ideas on this?
