(Hackers do you Microshit morons!!)There is also an interesting little program called FIND FAST under Control Panel that has almost no functionality except to keep track of every single file on your computer with any text (it neglects binary files as far as I know, someone else can check because I removed the frickin' thing).Note that when you use this hunk of crap it grinds your HD to hell and possibly attempts to connect to the internet in some hidden way (can't be sure of this but I've heard rumors).I wonder if they might be trying to have your own computer mail every frickin' thing you have ever done to some giant Microshit Database???No idea, could just be paranoia.
