Very clean code and great recommedations Velsankar. Now... here's a
particular scenario.

What if the malicious user deletes the file and then shuts down the computer
before the timed event occurs. Will the small exe still exist when the
computer restarts?

I learned alot from the code fragment. Thanks.
