• I havn't locked the files so other processes may try and access them. To solve this you can use the FileStream constructor as you have done, this I think has an option for locking the file for read/write access, I just can't remember off the top of my head
• This uses .NET 2.0 (hence the File.WriteAllText) so this will need to be changed to suit you needs
