    I've found something that is quite unusual happening to my VC source files. Occasionally, when I compile, I get errors due to one character having been changed in one of my source files, or the src or include files in my Visual Studio directories. Usually the character is simply changed from lower to upper case, it seems at random. For instance, today I had this change in my xlocale file, which prevented me compiling:

    ***** goodXLOCALE
    static const mask * __cdecl classic_table() _THROW0()
    ***** badXLOCALE
    static coNst mask * __cdecl classic_table() _THROW0()
    *****

    Has anyone else ever seen this? Does anyone have any clue as to what it might be? I look forward to hearing suggestions! Puzzled Paul.

      I have never seen it but it almost sounds like a virus or something similar if it is randomly changing data on the hard drive.
