Show me one single documented instance where the Prefetch or Superfetch capability has been used as a source of transmitting viruses. In seven years of studying XP and two years with Vista, I have never seen one such instance. Not one. It's possible that a virus might store code in the Prefetch folder (although again I have never seen a documented instance of this), but in that case the proper response would be to eliminate the malicious code, not the folder itself. If you found a virus in your Documents folder, would you delete the folder and all its contents?
Bad advice, based on a misunderstanding of the way Windows works. - Posted by: Ed Bott Posted on: 11/12/08 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
