Each time I open my MacBook something called "Bigfoot" searches for emails etc

Question

Does this happen to anyone else?
And how can I stop this happening?

Answer 1

One quick and dirty solution, assuming that you never delete the data files, is to do a directory scan, get the number of files in the directory, and append that number on to your file name.  (Then for safety sake, use a simple loop that checks if file already exists, if it does, increment your count by one, and try again.)
Simple design here, a bit crude, but gets the idea across.
Oh, am not sure when they were added, but the two colored file subVI's are 'Get File Extension.vi' and 'Check if File Exists.vi' in the File I/O -> Advanced File Functions sub-pallet.
