Aha...thanks. I've never used the AOL Computer Checkup--so I've never seen that. I use the Settings > Internet [web] Options > Internet Explorer Settings route to deleting temp files.

Judy- If the only browser she is using is the AOL browser there wouldn't be much point in clearing the temp Internet files anyplace other within AOL that I can see. One thing though...I don't understand where she is seeing all the counts as to the files being removed. When I clean out the temp Internet files in AOL they just go--there is no display that tells me exactly what is being deleted. Joan In a message dated 10/5/2008 1:10:03 P.M.

Every Web Page / Browser Window you open creates a Temp File, including AOL's. Rotating (changing) ads will also create some temps. If you do it through AOL, close all Windows -- Welcome Screen, Mail, and don;t "do" anything until the process finishes. Don't bother going back to check it-- once is enough. 3MB is rather small in the graphic-rich computer world of today. 500+ may only reflect that you: visited many pages; had many graphics/ads/pictures since the last time; opened more windows than on other days. It's always based on the user's usage of the Web (which includes AOL). Rather than doing it through AOL, why not do the same thing through Internet Explorer> Tools> Internet Options?

Patricia- That would be the only possible explanation. Some spam filters are set to "trick" a sender into thinking the address is not valid when it really is if they suspect the message is spam. This is done by bouncing the presumed spam back with the User Unknown reason. If it only happened a few times randomly I'd say that perhaps Comcast was just having server problems -- but not if it CONSISTENTLY happens with forwarded mail and replies but not with new messages. That would indicate something in the filters. Joan In a message dated 10/4/2008 11:39:03 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, [email protected] writes: In a message dated 10/4/2008 7:59:10 P.M.

I live in the midwest, in Indiana. I wonder whether geographic location makes a difference. Maybe Comcast is better in some areas than others. I have never had a problem with Comcast and AOL so I am guessing when I hear someone say they are having problems that it is likely the service in that particular area.

I believe, too, that something was amiss. All day yesterday ALL of the emails in my inbox had the shaded little envelopes with the magnifying glass on them. That told me that something was not working correctly. I also had a few emails that should've gone to the Spam Box. Today the little envelopes are as they should be, so maybe it is working now.
