      I think this is an extension used for the icons.

      What icons? Did you click any of the links already provided?

        I haven't visited the any of the above mentioned links. But I had shared my experience that this extension is mostly used for the icons. Any thing wrong?

        It's used for INItialization files; configuration files. the Windows API Functions WriteProfileString And ReadProfileString were introduced in windows 3.0 to read/write from the win.ini file. with the introduction of Windows 3.1 MS introduced the WritePrivateProfileString and ReadPrivateProfileString functions, which could write to separate INI files.

        INI has never been used for icons; the ICO extension has been used for Icons since early versions of windows.

        It's very cold here in California today, I needed a good smile.

        Probably got down to 40 F?

        Here in CO it was -12 last night and never got above 15 F today.

        But I grew up in southern CA and it's all relative. Took me a while to adjust.

        CA has a corrupted BOOT.INI file for the whole state.
        It is below freezing in the daytime.
