Thanks for the downvote, whoever you are. Visiting from Reddit? ;-)

I actually upvoted, for sharing your experience..

Not "from" Reddit, no; but I'm usually a silent participant here..

Funny old world....

I can't be the only person who looked at his processes and wondered what Bonjour was and where qttask.exe came from.

Or the fact that the cookies folder in Windows 7+ comes under "protected OS files". It basically has dozens of textfiles from all the ad/tracking companies..

The Cookies folder in C:\Users\username\AppData\Local(or Roaming)\Microsoft\Windows doesn't show when you enable show hidden files but shows when you enter the full path or enable showing protected files.
