System 9.21 Running IE 5.1 mostly Microsoft Word 98 I have been getting times where the computer seems to freeze up the scroll bar. Also, I had a big problem with OE 5 for email and lost many messages. It seems that it may be related to RealPlayer. I have not been able to get real player to work and the last time I did run it is when I had the OE problem. My cable connection seems rather slow and I get so many messages telling me that there isn't enough memory to open another window when I have plenty of memory for the applications. I have 320 mg memory and my computer won't let me open Express and explorer with more than two windows. I have allocated more memory to OE. Is this the famous memory leak going on? I can't remember what to do for that. I am in the midst of getting together medical info for an appt with a specialist tomorrow and am more concerned with losing info than the computer problem. I have too much on my plate but want to take steps to prevent something worse from happening. Disk first aid is usually okay although sometimes it won't do it and says something another disk being in use. I have no partitions. Thanks! Lynn
