Just today something strange started happening with my computer. A select few web pages cause my computer to freeze whenever I try to load them. Also, when I try to delete my temporary internet files or even open up the directory, my computer freezes. I just cleared the directory a couple days ago so it shouldn't be full of junk. Any ideas on what's going on?

Perform a scandisk and see if it finds any problems. Then try to repeat clearing the Temporary Internet Files cache.

Windows is also very tricky on how it handles it's temp internet files. If you want to see what is in them, do a find &quot;desktop.ini&quot; and delete all that come up int the temp internet files folder. You can then see all that is in there and better delete items
