items deleted from the recycle bin that are not wanted are automatically
restored when the computer is turned on (after approximately 24 hours).
Items MOVED to a cd are also restored after 24 hours. How can this restore
of unwanted material be stopped?
 
I am using windows XP - I'm sorry but I don't see a relationship between my
query and the 2 logged attempts to help.

This can happen with roaming profiles, which assumes that you are in a
domain environment. If so then you should ask your server administrator to
assist.

Thanks Pegasus - I stopped the guest user (as there is only one computer
and one person using it) but it didnt seem to work.
 
PROBLEM SOLVED. AN EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE WAS BACKING UP AND THEN RETURNING THE
DELETED ITEMS WHEN IT WAS CONNECTED. IT HAD A LOOK AROUND, FOUND THEM
MISSING AND POPPED THEM IN AGAIN. THANKS TO ALL WHO TRIED TO HELP.
