[X4U] Ugly icons and worse

[Brett Conlon]

It could be as simple as having the old FreeHand application somewhere  
on your Mac so OSX can tie the file type to the correct application  
Icon.

I used to have to do this with FreeHand on my OSX builds, otherwise  
the operators would see the file as an illustrator file, double click  
on it and all sorts of trouble would ensue....

Cheers,
