So someone breaks into your box and the only thing they can think of to
do is remove your ~/vmware directory?
It occurred to me this morning that a hacker could have gained access
to my system via the vmware guest OS (XP) and then deleted the
contents of vmware/ to cover his tracks. Does that sound like a
possibility?
