| 231479 | 2004-04-23 05:07:00 | I have a big build up of TRF files in Local Settings/Temp hundreds and hundreds of them. Would be interested to know what is generating these files. | pknell (5560) | ||

| 231481 | 2004-04-26 05:44:00 | Many thanks. Using the site suggested and through a link to Edit Pad have been able to open the TRF files and now find repeated references to such as pcmag.shopping.com services.yaga.com www.google.co.nz *.pcmag* *.ziffdavisinternet.* etc. etc. I am sure these TRF files have only started accumulating over recent months. Is there any way to stop them?? |

| 231483 | 2004-04-26 08:10:00 | It sounds like they are the product of some spyware, logging your history. Instead of just deleting them, try to eliminate whatever is creating them. Running updated versions of AdAware and Spybot would be a good start. |
