| | C:\$$DeleteMe.$$DeleteMe.$$DeleteMe.$$DeleteMe.$$DeleteMe.$$DeleteMe.$$DeleteMe.... This hidden dir has appeared on the root of the volume on which I installed Vista 5744. I only found it because I changed the default Explorer setting to show hidden files and folders. I assume with a name like that I can delete it, but if that's the case, why is it made hidden so that it wouldn't normally be seen? Nick Payne |

If I had to guess, I'd say it was a reminder by one programmer to another, rather than something for the user to see... |
