Well, this seems like a no-brainer. Adam is clearly using the NTFS file system, which is where Alternate Data Streams are a feature. Linux doesn't have this, and FAT doesn't either. As for Windows 98, that's just ridiculous.

I'm not sure, but I think C) Adam is using FAT file system is incorrect because ADS is not supported in FAT.
