Looking at the c:\windows\temp directory it lists 1060 items, some files,
some subdirectories. Lot of 0Kbits files etc ....

I am using a brand new Sony Microvault 1GB memory stick USB with windows
vista. I am unable to save any file on it either using save, Save as or just

WIndows cannot complete the extraction - destination ...
