Why no hand in "MessageBoxIcon.Hand"?

Hello! Just a small query, does anybody know why MessageBoxIcon.Hand is a "Cross on red circle" and not some sort of hand? http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.messageboxicon.aspx[^] Regards, Adeel

Amazingly, Google provided a result... :rolleyes: "The hand icon was added to mimic the standard Win32 constants allowed by the API. However the hand icon in Windows is from the Win3.x days and maps to the stop sign in all current versions of Windows."

This adds 10 points for recursive re-use-ability, Win3.x to Win Vista! ;)
