electric starter for my
car rather than a hand crank


Nothin' like a good ol'fashion remote starter for those cold winter morning warmups<g> Always wanted one..but most of my cars always need very precise hand-foot co-ordination to fire up in the cold....

Back on topic:

I'm evaluating this shareware app called Clone Master softbytelabs.com. It lists 0 lenght files, duplicate files, and same-name files in your system. Your system folder can be skipped in the search, though. My C: disk came up with 531 duplicate files. There's also a feature that marks which duplicates the app thinks should be deleted. There is no documentation what the deletion rules are. Out of my 531 dupes, 266 were marked for deletion.

Without me going into specifics if possible, are there valid reasons for certain duplicate files to exist on the same volume? Needless to say, I did not hit delete on 266 files from my computer..dupes or not.
