Overview:
On running windows system, you can't delete, format and change system
dirver. \
VMware register a COM Object use for Virtual Disk, but it's very danger. \
I don't know how to name this issue. If you allow unsafe ActiveX and
jscript, \
and has VMware installed, the vmware.htm will delete all harddisk
partition \
table on the windows system. please backup your partition table first.
