Slightly off topic but I was looking around my Windows XP environment and starting clicking on the "index.dat" files to see what was in them. Everything that I've done on my XP system was stored in these files- web sites I've been on, personal info, etc. Why would microsoft need to store all this information- and in a file that is difficult to delete (and hidden in many hidden folders)?
All the more reason why I need to get away from microsoft.
Watch out- I wonder what George Orwell would say?
