Starts with a 'G'. Sounds like 'frugal'.

controlfile.rb "starts with a 'G'. Sounds like 'frugal'?"
Sorry to be dense, but I don't quite follow you. Could you please expand on
that a little?

Hi,
A Google/google groups search turned up a lot more questions than answers,
but this explanation sounds plausible:
http://groups.google.com/group/micr...4c7b8?lnk=st&q=&rnum=1&hl=en#dfce4c487b74c7b8
Or (same message- shorter
link)http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie
6.browser/msg/dfce4c487b74c7b8?hl=en
But, I would *not* recommend disabling Automatic Updates. I would just
accept the presence of this file.
Hope this helps,

Guys I'm Sorry but that answer is just not acceptable. While I understand
that it may be part of Windows Automatic update its the MAY part that Bugs
me. I went over the documentation I have for BITs and Auto Update and could
not find any mention of it. I would hazard a guess that it is (as the name
implies) a controlfile for the BITs, and it keeps tabs on the staus of the
Downloads but it is a guess. Without a solid MS approved answer the file is
fodder forthe tinfoil hat types.

In theory, there's no difference between theory and practice, but in
practice, there is.
