Accidentally set profile directory location to desktop. Tried to delete profile from within firefox. Seemed to hang, I press control alt delete but the firefox finnished with out me ending task. This randomly deleted files on my desktop. In total I ve lost around 10 gigs of photos and music. I'm "experienced" with windowsxp (im a web application programmer), though I admit i did not want to try and recreate this bug. thankyou. .......... Brian Reproducible: Always
