Hi the only thing that bugs me is , and I don't know why or how to fix it(help please!) is that if you try to delete a file you have just been using/created e.g. a wrongly named file or a file created to temperarily hold an unzipped file xp tells you you can not delete this file as it is in use, see below --------------------------- Error Deleting File or Folder --------------------------- Cannot delete New Folder: It is being used by another person or program. Close any programs that might be using the file and try again. --------------------------- OK --------------------------- No program in use and only desktop open!! the solution I have found is reboot and then it will let you delete! go figure!! but apart from that I like Xp better than 95 98 or Me or 2000 Dave
