Sorry, Christopher, this is really aimed at Ric as I obviously missed 
reading his original post (but in response to *your* question: it 
doesn't matter which version of Windows you run they all do the same as 
far as I know.)

I have already mentioned this in my other response here. Windows 
generates temp files for itself - which it never deletes.

Also, if you delete a file it goes into the Recycle Bin where it stays 
until you actually clear it - but many people don't, so........

As this is an Ubuntu list and not a Windows list I'll give you more 
details privately about all this if you ask for them.
