Given the same decision a year or two earlier I thought "fuck it, it's only 4 quid". Since then I think I *have* used it a couple of times, as I have some very old PC games on floppy still. Mostly I just boggle at the fact it always tries to read the floppy drive when shutting down, and I've no idea why!

It's either or both of:
The Windows FastFind indexing thing (or its successor)
Your antivirus.

Lots of peeps used to switch fastfind off, coz it's crap.

Probably the indexing then, since I have the same AV software at work, and it doesn't behave in the same way.
