What the f*** is a trace file?
« on: 23 February 2003, 22:06 »
I just noticed that a file ".plugin140_01.trace" was added to my profile directory in my fuckdows 2000 box. I think this happend right after I visited the money section of msn.com.

The website that I'm trying to access doesn't allow me to use the browsers from mu Linux box, so I have to use fuckdows and IE Exploder.

Anyway, what the hell is a trace file and what's the most efficient way to ge rid of that?

Thanks folks!

I was reading that it's a temp file for java and is something like a dump file. Can anyone confirm that?
