Title: What the f*** is a trace file?
Post by: edisav 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!

ur guess is as good as mine, but i'd bet that it isn't benifical to consumers

just delete it and see what happens

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

.TRACE  Telcordia Software Visualization and Analysis Toolsuite (testing software)
          ECXpert Debugging File
          WebSTAR Mail Server Error File
          Zope 3 Strace Log
          TcpDump Output File

That help any?
