Following various reports about the latest Intel CPU, I have decided
to have a quick snoofing around my computer. Sometime ago I modified the
'cookie.txt' file, erased every thing in it, then set the properties to
'Read-Only'. For a while nothing has happened, or at least I thought so.
Using Netscape, I can still access all the web sites without any hassle
, no error message popping up.
I only used Internet Explorer once or twice by accident and have
got rid of it from the desktop (there are only two items 'My computer'
and 'Recycle Bin' on the desktop). However, I am aware of the mm2048.dat
& mm256.dat. This time I first deleted those two, then restarted the
Netscape, two new mm2048.dat & mm256.dat were duly regenerated. Changing
the properties to 'Read-Only'. I restarted the Netscape 2nd time.
Whoohoo, came up a nice box with the following message:

'Error Initializing the cache, Shutdown all programs and run
scandisk or chkdsk. Delete the cache, cookies and history directories in
your windows directory and then restart IE. If the problem persists
reinstall IE.'


For a moment or two, I am stunned. IE? What for? I didn't even start

Did anyone else see this before?
