re: What is the Xerox - nwwia folder? Tuesday, January 6, 2004 at 12:50 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Keith (1 messages posted) This is not that hard. c:\program files\xerox\nwwia contain two hideen folders. The files are loaded as part of an INF install. XSCAN_XP.inf to be exact. xscan_xp.inf is in your windows/inf folder. xscan.inf is part of xerox drivers. Why windows decided to load them for no reeason is a mystery, but they are not spybots or alien software. If you are worried about microsoft spying on you, worry about this "Installing SP1 updates 11 programs to report back to Mircosoft on your actions. Mircosoft explians this is to garther informaton in its white paper on the subject. Spooler and Media viewer but report back to mircosoft the title to ANYTHING you print or watch in media player.
