Thanks. Disabling active desktop solved that problem. No one was using it anyhow.
But the Internet Explorer error just won't go away! First I got IE 5.5 SP2 and
installed it. But the same error occurred. IE did show up in the Add/Remove Programs
list when it hadn't previously.
Next I updated to IE 6.0 from the Microsoft Security Update CD (Feb 2004). I
also installed all of the Windows ME security updates while I was at it. The same
problem still occurs! I have booted to DOS and deleted the ~9053715278.TMP file.
But the next time I boot up IE will give the same error after about 20 or 30 seconds.
The file name is always the same. The file date/time is always consistent with
the last boot. So, for some reason IE is trying to create this TMP file and errors
out everytime. The file size is about 72 KB.
It has me baffled!!!
