 The false positive shouldn't happen now, because that entry expects
 INSTALL1.EXE to be in the subdir WIN_SS.

 Anyway this kind of false positives is a recurring problem in Director,
 there are entries that have been added a bit liberally, in some cases
 pretty obscure games/applications that are almost impossible to find. And
 the fact that one of the archivists is AWOL doesn't help :/
