The advantage is is that you can 'borrow' movies for long amounts of time without him remembering that you borrowed them.

The disadvantage is the pizza cheese grime on the DVDs

There are plenty of 800 numbers out there that advertise with more than 7 letters. First seven are recognized and the call goes through

Thats actully not true. WinXP will, by default, put a folder definition file within the directory. This folder will contain, among other things, view settings, background color/image, etc. This file doesnt show up in the folder properties 'file size', nor will it even appear at all unless youve checked "show hidden system files"....

You would be talking about the desktop.ini file, or possibly even the Thumbs.db file.
On creation of a new folder, neither of these files are created. They are only created after you actually change the settings of the folder (changing the icon or modifying the background/font etc) and the Thumbs.db is not generated untill you select the folder to display all icons as either Thumbnails or as a SlideShow.
