hi all, I posted a message yesterday asking for hrlp on pages on loading and that my hard drive space was shrinking

anyway after some research i have managed to sort out the problems

i installed thye new version of IE 8 and switched off the protected mode it seems to have worked

my hard drive problem was sorted by shrinking the amount of system restore space as i currently had 35G taken up anyway i have reduced this by giving it a max of 3G


yippppeeeeee i am a happy lady now




thanx peeps

I was wondering: 3GB for sys restore? Is that better way to use resources??
IMHO no! it should be less unless you've big space with feww things to put there!

You can delete old (all but the most recent) system restore points by using disk cleanup.
Also CCleaner and ATF cleaner can reclaim space from other things

I do not reccomend IE8. Its beta and its crap.
If i am helpful, please give me reputation points.
