I have an incident where in the documents and settings in windows 2000 I have a profile show up under a number of systems where the name of the folder shows up as 3 squares. I don't know where it came from but it appears on my workstations and my servers. I don't know what it is. Does anyone know anything that would make this profile????


  Can you copy the characters and paste them into a Unicode-capable
editor?  If these are characters not present in the font used for displaying
folder names, that might help.

  Related note: some time ago, I discovered a similar occurrence, but
in the Certificates - Current User MMC plugin: two folders with Chinese(?)
names, and one with a single square were there. The folders are empty, though.
I asked around on Focus-MS, but noone seems to have seen anything like it.
