One thing about Vista is that the folders keep former versions.
If you delete a file that is within a restore point (and not in the recycle
bin)
one can right click on the folder and restore the file..

That's good in one way...as a lot of people delete stuff by accident...
but from a security stand point that could be dangerous.


However much I am in favor of protecting privacy...
I cannot say I have any sypathy for protecting "perps"
