QUOTE I just found a major bug in the Explorer for Windows 7 and Server 2008 (and probably Vista).
The bug is that the Explorer can't keep track of its focus properly and it can lead to _MAJOR_ loss of data and security problems. The bottom line is that you may not be working on the file/directory that you think you are.

Hmmm, this is kind of confusing. He should use the recycle bin, or try using the right click > Delete on the mouse more.
 
Apperenyly, this bug also happens when copying files aswell in Windows Explorer according to his latest video. This is even worse since you can accidently copy a confidential file to someone laptop over the network by accident and risk having your secrets exposed.
