I guess what I'm trying to say, kindly... is that I sort of feel like this is a tad bit more serious than just alot of files cluttering up drives. Maybe I'm totally wrong, but one of the first things I had written to SM early on was this MFT issue and at that point was only guessing. Now I have proof that at least on my system, it had the potential to destroy my drive in less than a year. Not joking.
Serious enough that, if it was >my< product or project I'd be thinking maybe of pulling the plug on the current method. Don't take that the wrong way. I have read everything written here and I do understand it's not SM or the programmers fault. I think it's something flakey with Flash/Flex and if was >me< I'd be on the phone with Adobe asking what the deal is.
But that's just me.
If nothing else I would suggest people using Poser use RAM drives for temp files or SD cards or removable USB drives. It's not worth killing your REAL OS drive for this.
I like Poser 8 alot (except light placement) and I want to see it succeed. That's why I'm posting. I am not bashing or complaining or trying to be annoying. I want this issue solved and move on. I think it's a serious issue.
Happy Holidays!
