Unfortunately it is in W2K also  I understand that you can choose to use it, but why make it default? Like using big objects, web -scene (the space consuming, irrelevant, needless infopanel in the Windows explorer if you don't take it off) and all those things which efficiently prevent you from finding and seeing anything. Well, this was my flame against M$ and I don't do it again. What's the use of it anyway? Sorry guys
