In VIRUS-L Digest V2 #265, "Carl_A.Fassbender" <YOOPER@MSU.BITNET> was
asking why the Gatekeeper & Gatekeeper Aid icon did not show up after
he made the files invisible.

The Mac OS does not load INITs that are part of files with the
Invisible bit set.  [Editorial comment: Hey Apple!  Why?????]  If you
want to have Gatekeeper active, you must have the file visible on the
desktop.
