Last tuesday's updates (which I deferred installing until yesterday) left a folder on my HD, called "C:\c0772dab3463959f7c", containing a log file, msxml6-KB927977-enu-x86.log, which contains install logging details for the msxml patch.
My folder is named c:\6ad0c137abd5117c8e8326 , and my file is named msxml4-KB927978-enu.log
Did everyone get this (or perhaps a similarly-named folder with a different hex number)? If absolutely everyone ended up with this it's probably just M$ being careless, but if not it might mean something failed during install and that's why it didn't clean up properly.
I just checked 2 random machines at the office, and they both have similar directories with the same log file. My assumption would be that it's just sloppy installation leaving files rolling around...
cheers, DaveK
