Ted, google didn't find anything pertinent searching for "socket of trois". If I had your problem I would 1. try another browser [anything but IE by AOL] 2. try another ISP if your ISP is AOL [Juno gives you 10 free hours per month. I have Juno on my laptop for a backup and it has caused no trouble Gottfried

Click on the link below and download and run this little program. grc.com About IE Cache Overflow problem Systems with a cache overflow act erratically when browsing the internet. However, since many portions of Internet Explorer are integrated into the operating system, it can cause other applications to behave erratically as well. For example, an attachment may not open in Outlook with an internet cache overflow in IE. All versions of Internet Explorer have a bug in the way they handle the browser cache. In some circumstances, such as when a page isn't fully loaded because you press the stop button, IE will not update its cache information but does not delete the partial file. IE has lost track of these files, and they will not be deleted if you clear the cache through IE's menu option (Tools \| Internet Options \| General tab \| Delete Files). You can demonstrate this by using the menu delete option and retesting; you will probably still see several megabytes of disk space being used by your IE cache. For manual deletion, use this method: 1. Open an Explorer folder window (for example, double-click My Computer). From the Explorer menu select Tools \| Folder Options \| View. Make sure that you have checked the box next to "Show hidden files and folders" and uncheck "Hide protected operating system files". 2. Start Internet Explorer and click Tools \| Internet Options \| General tab \| Settings \| View Files. 3. IE should have opened up a folder window, typically viewing a folder with the name of C:\Windows\Temporary Internet Files. Put your cursor in the Address area of the folder window and add the name \content.ie5 to the name, so in our example the Address bar would now read c:\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\content.ie5. 4. You should see a series of four folders with random eight-character names like ADOZMZS1. Go into each folder and delete all the files they contain. Do not delete the folders. 5. If desired, reset the folder options you changed in step 1. Try running the cleanup disk space autofix at pitstop again.
