oglueck commented on JBAS-7674:
-------------------------------

I still see this in JBossAS-6.

1. Open an Explorer Window in the data directory (where the jnp-service.url) file is created
2. Startup JBoss
3. Shutdown JBoss
4. The file is left behind and is locked by explorer.exe

I suspect the Windows Explorer treats this as a web-link file (.url) and tries to parse it. But the file is empty, Explorer fails to parse but doesn't unlock it (probably a simple bug in Explorer).
Probably the best thing is to chose a file extension different from .url, such that Explorer will not try to do something with it.
