HUNTING BARBIE

Hunt Down Chainsaw Barbie!

Ken may have been the one to dump Barbie, but you could be the one to stop Mattel from destroying rainforests for cheap packaging.

Our investigation and testing of Barbie's packaging revealed her boxes are made from Indonesia's rainforests which are vital to the continued survival of endangered orang-utans and Sumatran tigers and for keeping our climate on an even keel.

Already over 150,000 Greenpeace supporters have emailed Mattel demanding they stop making Barbie's packaging from Indonesia's rainforests. Thousands and thousands of people have shared Barbie's dirty secret on Facebook and Twitter. The pressure is mounting and you can be part of the next activity to expose Barbie's role in deforestation.

Not content with the devastation in Indonesia, Barbie is now on the rampage in the UK. Hundreds of Chainsaw Barbie dolls, each brandishing a pink chainsaw, are hidden across the country and I'm relying on you to help track them down.


none in Cambridge, but maybe there's an infestation near you -- check the map!

IT query

So, there's a directory on the C drive of this 'ere PC.

It used to have Zero files in it, even though there should have been Many.

Then I logged in as the admin user, and looked at the directory, and there were Many files.

Now I am logged in as myself again, and the directory still has Many files.

Any explanations? What am I missing?
