There is a program called 'filemon' from sysinternals I think it is...gives you a rolling list of files being accessed and the program accessing them...I believe you can even filter the output to only look at certain file types...it's worth a try...I have a copy if you can't find one online

I checked the email service, but it's set to manual, and hasn't been started since the upgrade weeks ago. I checked the Windows Event Viewer to see if I could match the create date of one of these .obf with the timestamp of an event, but nothing is close. I guess we'll have to wait to see if anyone else has an idea.
