I have noticed that if I ever have a closing down problem (Win95, 100CT, 64MB) - e.g. if I get a hang on close-down at the <Wait while closing windows> screen - it is usually after a lengthy session (is an hour or so lengthy??) on the Libretto during which the machine may have been left unattended at some stage for about 30mins and have entered the auto screen switch-off mode at least once during that period. Despite using the computer <after> the display-off mode I get the impression the HDD activity is never as fast again as it was before - things tend to be sluggish and therefore unless enough time is allowed after closing down an application (often Internet Explorer/Outlook express) for the disk to sort out what I imagine are the temp files it is likely to hang (maybe that is not the right phrase) or fail to close down completely. My power management settings appear to be in order - I usually have them on high speed settings as I nearly always am using the mains power supply. I also use a cache-management program (CacheSentry) in tandem with my use of IE4 and would not think this would cause a problem - if anything that should help the situation based on my past experience with IE4. Ideas?
