Pseudo-malware is pretty much the way to go as a developer in my experience.
I believe his suggestion of a javascript file that deletes itself works only works because javascript gets sandboxed and doesn't suffer from Windows "flaw" with file locks.

While Raymond does offer a solution he's also completely side stepping any responsibility on Microsoft's part in creating and perpetuating this problem without offering their own native solution.
That last bit IMO is one reason to argue against him being the best software engineer. He might have the skills, but they are offset by his conflict of interest with MS.
