    Sometimes after deleting files like word docs and powerpoint stuff i shut down the machine. Wn i turn it back on in my trash can it says "recovered files". I have no idea what it is but it looks like its code or something but osx cant read it. It happened this morning. When i shut down my laptop twice last night two files of that name where in the trash can. I just empty them out. What is it?

    Hey, don't! :p Obviously if you don't know, you ask, or you'll never know :). Even now, I don't know all about Mac OS X...I just learned along the way. And Xander's always a great help :).
