I already told you (collectively) all this, but I'll tell you again.
The tiny files are recordings of conversations between the Poser Flex GUI and the Poser server. These conversations happen at a minimum rate of 14,400 times per hour. You do not need to keep excitedly reporting how many there are. I know how many there are. I wrote the software that is conversing. Also every time you open a folder, also every time you click on anything in the library, also every time you drag the mouse during drag-and-drop of content - all of these cause a message between client and server.
And the component that is doing the recording is the browser component supplied with the OS. There is no need to test for additional software. We already know a blank PC can do this. What we do not know is why one PC in a hundred does this, and the rest do not.
There is some hidden thing that some people have and most other people do not have. Something in common. This hidden something in common is not yet revealed and will never be by guessing.
What has to happen is that every single person who has this problem contact SM and every single one must answer every question asked until the common factor is found. There will be many many questions that turn out to be completely irrelevant. Failure to answer them will stop the process.
I'm not saying you (collectively) have to cooperate. I'm saying that if you (collectively) don't cooperate, to find the common factor then, some of you (individually) will have to suffer.
In the entire SM organization + beta group, only two people see the mysterious XML creation problem. One of those people is Uli, who is the director of engineering. Do you guys think that we're ignoring this when it's happening to Uli, our boss? F*** no. Yet Uli's machine alone is not enough to figure out what the f*** is going on.
Now stop guessing silly stuff and everybody who has this problem, work with SM (and indirectly you're working with me and the engineeers) so they get all the data. Without data, all I can say is "wow, that's really weird".
Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
