VCM directory

Me again, I had a problem you helped fix elsewhere. It was related to a CWS find that cwshredder wouldn't fix. I think I got rid of it. New problem (maybe).

I have a windows\VCM directory. I know from browsing these forums that it's a version conflict manager, or at least it's supposed to be. My question is why would it be storing supposedly overwritten things that I didn't write?

examples:
DXDIAG.EXE v 4.7.1.3000 in system directory.

DXDIAG.EXE v 4.8.0.400 in VCM directory with a bunch of other files created yesterday (dll's, .000, VXD files, etc). All I did was install iexplore5.5, I didn't install directx of any sort unless it comes with it.

BUT per this post I see that vcmui.exe is supposed to run the conflict manager. vcmui doesn't exist anywhere on my drive.

Curiouser and curiouser. Can anyone comment so I can sleep in peace tonight?

Kevin
