With all due respect to all of you, and I appreciate your attempts to help,
but I DO NOT WANT OE6 DOING ANY COMPACTING! I understand the need for this
but the way Microsoft designed the software it wreaks havoc on the operating
speed of my computer for quite some time afterwards!

I do have a lot of files but they are in separate folders. Anyway, thanks
for offering the help. I have to go... DWK

Hello to all! Does anyone know how I can prevent IE6 from automatically
"compacting" every so often on its own?

The problem is that every time it does this it takes forever to do it and
when it is done my entire computer runs incredibly SLOOOOOOOOOW!!

This is extremely aggravating to me! I don't know why it has this effect
on my computer but every single button click, selection or other action
after a "compacting" event responds in glacial time for at least the first
15 minutes or more for each program I open up!

Thank you,
