I work a lot on remote machines so what I usually do on my local PC is to listen to Internet radio...

Running the "Performance Monitor" to see what app is using the disk and what files... When listening to an Internet radio stream... using VLC it's all in RAM and I get zero disk usage so my drives goes to sleep for hours and hours... which is nice.

However...
if I use WMP ( Windows Media Player ) it keeps trashing the drive... well, not trashing but it keeps using a couple of files constantly :

C:\$LogFile
ntuser.dat
ntuser.dat.log1
.
.
...and some other files.

Any idéa why?

Due to the above, I have stopped using WMP...
