Hi Larre,
You found in a couple of days all the things I found, a a couple more,
after working on it for three weeks.  I hope you will follow this up
with a revies in about six or eight nonths.  The programme may not
have been going long enough to get any real feedback.  After all it is
a three year arrangenment.  Thank you.

Well, rats.  Your answer is excellent, but I didn't get what I was
hoping to get from it.  Not your fault, though, larre.  You did all I
asked for and more.

Thank you,
Apteryx

Thank you for the response. I hope you will help me again.

Obviously extremely well researched, and very impressive: but almost
frightening to this 70 year old amateur user. Have passed it to my
computer trained nehpew for implementation. But if he quails at the
task, the computer will be returned to the supplier, undr warranty
repair terms. Many thanks for a great effort on your part, Google

larre-That was great work. It was really thorough and I'm glad that
you were familiar with, "Everbody Poops,' because I was afraid of
being offensive!
But as an addendum to you or anyone else in the Peanut Gallery, whay
does this belief that water is the only effective source of hydration
prevail? A physician's assistant insisted to me the other day that it
had to be water! No other liquid would do! She was emphatic! And why
are so many people in our society always seen with a water bottle,as
if they fear that they're going to transplanted out of the blue by
aliens into the Sahara Desert! Does a large segment of our population
not know about water fountains?
Thanks again larre for your well researched answer.

This was truly a great answer--far more than I had even hoped for!
Larre-ga clarified many issues for me, and gave superb guidance on
what course to steer and what steps to take next. I'm very grateful to
him--and to Google for this outstanding service!

to larre-ga:
Excellent answer! You found some utilities that look very helpful. I
tried AimAtSite first, since you put it first, and it looked great.
Have not gotten it to work right, but it still looks like a good
program.
I'll let you know what happens, but in any case your research was
excellent.
I'm very sorry about the delay in thanking you & closing this file. (I
began some summer courses in July; that's been cutting into my time.

To larre-ga: Thanks. I have some further points to note: 

1. Re: "Empty Temporary Internet Files Folder when browser is closed."
I did already have this UNchecked, so this could not be the decisive
point here.

2. Re: Allocating space--I had no idea this could even be done; I have
allocated more space, and I hope this may do the job.

3. Re: "Delete all offline content"--I'd never heard of this box.
Actually, it would have helped me if you'd clarified that the box only
appears on the screen which appears AFTER selecting "Delete [Temporary
Internet] Files." I'd never seen that screen, because I've never done
that Delete. (Since the system already has been deleting all my
history files constantly--that's my problem here, after all--I assumed
that it was in fact deleting all temporary internet files of any
kind.) Anyway, the box was unchecked, and still is.

I am hopeful that increasing the allocation of space will work. Still,
one final query: Since Microsoft organizes so many things so badly --
for instance, by making sure that the user can't consider these 3
related settings on one screen, where they obviously belong -- can you
tell me if there are any OTHER possible settings to check? You are
better on this point than Microsoft, in fact, so I'm assuming you've
covered everything involved. But please add a comment if there is
anything else to check.Thanks!

Great researcher.  Clarified all my questions promptly and made the

digest.

That's Great - and surely it will work in nearly ANY browser!  Maybe
not Mosaic, but as far as I know nobody in the Troop is using Mosaic
;)

The Troop and I thank you!

Thank you!  Well organized and easy to follow.  This will help immensely.

My guess is that there is no such site (one that covers ALL the
different boats that work the harbor), but you did a great job of
finding all the major players - the tugs, the pilot boats, the cargo
ships. I loved those boats that skim trash off of the NJ rivers. A
very needed service. Thanks for you help.

Thanks!
