+Quote Usage Recommendations
+NOTE: Microsoft recommends that you follow these recommendations closely when you use junction points:
+� Use NTFS ACLs to protect junction points from inadvertent deletion.
+� Use NTFS ACLs to protect files and directories that are targeted by junction points from inadvertent
+ deletion or other file system operations.
+� Never delete a junction point by using Explorer, a del /s command, or other file system utilities that
+walk recursively into directory trees. These utilities affect the target directory and all subdirectories.
+� Use caution when you apply ACLs or change file compression in a directory tree that includes NTFS
+junction points.
+� Do not create namespace cycles with NTFS or DFS junction points.
+� Put all your junction points in a secure location in a namespace where you can test them out in safety,
+and where other users will not mistakenly delete them or walk through them.
