It's also a big attack surface. Just like how a lot of malware looks for the browser password cache now, it doesn't take much for a malware developer to just go for the recall store. The malware doesn't need to pack in software to take screenshots, if the OS serves it up for them on a platter.

    The location is known, and I seem to remember it being fairly simple to view the contents in the right system viewer with a bit of work, so yeah. I never considered that but you're quite right: MS is packaging that shit up all nice and handy for whoever can grab it by whatever means.
