Hi Dave. I had this problem a couple of years ago. In short, Windows was sending 
my temporary internet files to another folder. I'd like to give someone the credit 
but I don't remember where I found it. 

In IE click "tools">>>internet options>>>, under the TIF section, click "delete files">>>then 
click "settings".....On the "settings" page click "move folder"....Move it to your 
"C" drive>>>OK>>>Close everything out and open the new TIF folder on your "C" drive. 
If there's anything in it, delete it. Mine had 30,000 files in it. It had so many 
that I couldn't delete them all at one time. I had to delete 5,000 at a time. No 
more trouble since then. If it don't work, no harm done.

Hope it works.........moz
