    If Savageduck wasn't responsible, who was?

    You’re just not paying attention. Nospam already slipped up once and
    revealed that Duck is a secret agent.

    Sadly, 'nospam' is a well know Usenet Troll who /pretends/ to know facts.

    I wonder if he knows that Savageduck, like me, likes Labrador dogs. :-)

    FYI, after much experimentation with the help of 'Snit', I've managed to
     determine how to produce an icon like those found in my iCloud Drive.

    Here's screenshot to show you:- https://jmp.sh/Bkj3C10W

    Hi folks!

    A clear and concise explanation of how things work may be found here:-

    My sincere thanks to poster 'Snit' who showed it to me.

    Sadly, it does NOT explain ho the videos of Savageduck found their way onto my computer. I had simply 'watched them' at the links posted by Savageduck, I did not download them.

    If they weren't downloaded, then you didn't see them.

    The 'User' is irrelevant!

    nope. the user is extremely relevant, and the sole cause of the
    problems encountered.

    No PROBLEMS have been encountered.

    Observations have been made, which nobody can explain.

    NOR reproduce.

    Bull. Glasser reproduced it the way I said

    How can you get things so topsy-turvy?

    Snit has no idea either.

    *HOW* did the video files by Leonard O. get into my iCloud Drive?

    Surely SOMEBODY knows!
