FORKED directory

I just got an email from someone who says, "Whenever I run the POS program a FORKED directory keeps on installing itself onto my secondary hardrive. The file is just gibberish. I would just like to know what the heck is going on?"
This is not something that the POS program is designed to do.
Has this happened to anyone else?

I've not seen this Dale, it could be a system file, or perhaps something more sinister, and it's a co-incidence it appears when DHPOS is run.
I suggest they update/scan for viruses and spyware.

I think i've seen this too, I keep DHPOS on my D drive (D:/DHPOS), but i have this "Forked" folder on my C drive.
Go figure.

My error. The POS program does use a FORKED directory under some conditions but it is so rarely used that I forgot all about it.
Man, this thing has way too many features.
