Background: - About a week ago I installed Kaspersky (not yet paid, just the downloaded version), not a plug-in or so, stand-alone version. - By then some pre TB V2.03.47. - Done that, numerous bat*.tmp started to show up in "D:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Temp", not being deleted after closing / starting TB, all 130KB in size, according to W2K explorer. - This didn't happen before, not such an amount (hundreds) of bat*.tmp files. - So, I guessed it was Kaspersky, not deleting them. - Well, ok.... for now. Tonight I installed TB V2.03b47. - So what changed? - Not Kaspersky, just TB. - No more numerous bat*.tmp in "D:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Temp" - But now they show up in the users' home directory, as configured in my W2K. My simple conclusion, so far: - TB changed the location of the bat*.tmp files - Not a real problem for me, but I would suggest using some temp-dir in the TB account directory, please. - Why all the bat*.tmp files? - It doesn't seem to be a Kaspersky problem, there were no changes there. - Seems to be a TB problem. Questions: - Any explanations / hints about this? - Any way to prevent those bat*.tmp files? -- Kind regards, Peter Ouwehand E: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - - - Created the above using A program which insists to be : The Bat! V2.03.47 An OS which insists to be : Windows 2000 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 4 ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 2.03 Beta/47 | "Using TBBETA" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
