Sorry, but i don't believe there is a program that can do that. You would have to modify your icons resource so that it became a 'nameless' application.. the only problem would be that you couldn't put anything in it.. The OS needs the name to track the flow of data to and from the said folder.

I have 4 folders on my desktop that are 'nameless'. basically I changed the name to spaces, it's not the greatest if you plan on doing any targetting through terminal, but it does a decent job for me. haven't had any problems with apps finding the folders, and all my apps seem to find the files inside fine.

there is nothing "wrong" with that naming convention... per sey - whole lot less confusing than all those fancy lettered names... <space> <spacespace> <spacespacespace>
One could make life real interesting and change the localized language to one you don't speak or read - man, THAT would be real fun!
I am lightly poking at no one in particular. I used to think that a "symbol" based interface would be great but it seemed to be too much trouble.
I wonder if one could build a haxie or something that would give a third option to Label Position: Bottom, Right or None. Unix has already named your drive and every file by logical name, the one you view has very little to do with the OS functionality, just with the nut behind the keyboard finding the file in under 23 days... [28 days later... you become a raging insane meateater]
