Temp Files in Windows folder
My mind has gone AWOL on me.....but wait for Mike or Mart in the
morning.....haven't seen this problem for a LONG time. Just a minor thing, but for the life of me, I can't remember what causes it. They won't harm your computer, but will sure take over your HD space..... Cheers......Heather "AAH" wrote in message ...

I think this is as a result an old Power Point(office 97) Q221438 refers to file Mdm.exe. This file is not installed on my hd but the reference exists in the registry in the keys [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Explorer Bars\{C4EE31F3-4768-11D2-BE5C-00A0C9A83DA1}] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Explorer Bars\{C4EE31F3-4768-11D2-BE5C-00A0C9A83DA1}\FilesNamedMRU] "000"="Mdm.exe" "001"="fffd195b_{0BC73C3A-5BE4-433E-8BC4-55801AAD9FC6}.tmp" "002"="NVCPLDAEMON" "003"="NWIZ" "004"="Winimage.exe" REGEDIT4 [HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Explorer Bars\{C4EE31F3-4768-11D2-BE5C-00A0C9A83DA1}] [HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Explorer Bars\{C4EE31F3-4768-11D2-BE5C-00A0C9A83DA1}\FilesNamedMRU] "000"="Mdm.exe" "001"="fffd195b_{0BC73C3A-5BE4-433E-8BC4-55801AAD9FC6}.tmp" "002"="NVCPLDAEMON" "003"="NWIZ" "004"="Winimage.exe" Any further advice?

Thanks for your help "Mike M" wrote in message ... AAH, The Registry MRU keys containing those strings are there because you have searched for the strings, that is mdm.exe and fffd195b_{0BC73C3A-5BE4-433E-8BC4-55801AAD9FC6}.tmp. These keys have nothing to do with your problem. When you searched for mdm.exe did you check the contents of the folder C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VS7DEBUG (if present) which is one of the place mdm.exe can hide itself. On occasion disabling script debugging in Internet Explorer has been reported to stop the production of the unwanted fff*.tmp files in the Windows folder [in Internet Explorer, go Tools | Internet Options | Advanced and make certain that "Disable script debugging" is checked in the "Browsing" section] -- Mike Maltby AAH wrote: Alan I think this is as a result an old Power Point(office 97) Q221438 refers to file Mdm.exe.
