It is in this folder.

C:\Documents and Settings\( ? maybe philip )\Local Settings\Application Data

Here is a very good search/find utility.

You have to watch XP because it lies like a rug!!!

XP will show you an empty file but it doesn't always mean it's empty. Bill Gates shows you only what he wants! (I keep my XP on FAT32 so I can boot up with DOS and sneak a peek)

You won't trust Windows/NTFS to accurately report filesystem information because of Bill Gates, but you will trust DOS/FATx? That logic seems....flawed. You do know that DOS is a Microsoft product and is more closely associated with Bill Gates than any version of Windows ever was, right?
