It’s called “Recent” but there are files in it over 12 months old.

600 odd taking up 5 megs.

Would a big delete be in order? :D

(just the files not the folder) ;)

You can remove the My Recent Documents listing from your Start Menu too if you wish. For XP right click on the start button > Properties > Customise > Advanced. You will see that option at the bottom.
