MicroSoft Works version 3.0 puts a Microsoft folder in the
extensions folder in the system folder. Why? I don't know, but
it looks like Excel 4.0 does the same thing--don't know if they
share any files. 

If you drag the folder out into the main system folder so that it
will be next to the Aldus, Claris, Alladin, etc... folders, it
will just create a new Microsoft folder back in the extensions
folder again and ignore the one in the "correct" place.
