Good afternoon,
Yesterday, I noticed that my HDD light was flashing about twice a
second, every second, even while the computer was idle.
While I got to wondering, I decided to open Vista's Resource Monitor,
and I looked at the "Disk" section.
Sitting at the top, when sorted in Write >> ascending, sits Explorer.exe
writing to c:\users\[uname]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\usrclass.dat.
In third place sits rundll32.exe, writing to the same file.
I was just wondering what this file was, and why my computer continues
to write to the file, and how much damage this constant writing may do
to my hard drive.
Thank you,
