As I heard on TV last night, "This will sting a bit". It is a worthwile read.





Sorry about the bad word there is no www the four stars just get replaces by the F-word. I am sorry for the obscenity the read is still worthwile.

Well, there's something peculiar about the files under Content. IE5, but, unlike what is said in the article, I can see them all and manipulate them.



What's peculiar is that I have dozens of subdirectories with exactly the same objects in each one. But I don't think it's evil.



I think the author didn't see the files simply because he didn't wait long enough while looking at the directory. I see them without any system modifications other than 'show all files'.



I've always disabled Find Fast, simply because I never saw any gain from it, I never could get scandisk to run properly while FindFast was running, and I found it annoying. But not insidious.



The files have to go somewhere before they're processed by the computer.
