What about making a large percentage of the files write protected?
This should prevent deletion most of the time and may bring up a warning
message when a deletion is attempted - however it is initiated.

That's in the back of my mind, because this is too strange. IF it's
sabotage or some sibling squabble I doubt if it's my nephew
himself as he's pretty peed off that stuff has gone, maybe someone
else is doing it. But trust me, I don't believe there's anyone in my
brother's family capable of such a thorough delete job. I can find
absolutely no trace of the missing s/w on the computer. Reformat
it is............bugger, another day lost
