What says you "need to run the Disk Cleanup"? We don't really have enough information about your machine. Googling for "Disk Cleanup buffer overrun" brings me quite a few links about malware removal which may or may not be relevant. So to start off, answer these two questions: The First Question Of Troubleshooting: what changed between the time things worked and the time they didn't? The Second Question of Windows Troubleshooting: what is the malware/virus status of the machine? If you think it is clean, what programs (and versions) did you use to determine this? Be sure the computer is clean: http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware Then post back and tell us the answers and include a bit more information about your computer such as its approximate age, the size of the hard drive, how much free space is left on the drive, that sort of thing. The reason for asking for this information is so we can narrow down the troubleshooting for you. Malke -- Elephant Boy Computers www.elephantboycomputers.com "Don't Panic!"

Is it the fact that he filters out any of your messages that bothers you? -- Rock [MVP - User/Shell]

She asked you question about the advice you gave the OP. Where is the "unwise" or "unprofessional" humor in that? -- Rock [MVP - User/Shell]
