ScanDisk Locks Up...

[bob]

Hey,

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think you mean Disk
Cleanup. I was one of the first people to have this
problem about a year ago. Far back in the newsgroups are
all the posts about this problem. I'm sure almost no one
uses it, but in case you want to I'll explain it. The
reason that it freezes there is because your compress old
files registry key can just get messed up. You can
download this registry key at this website,
http://www.kellys-
korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm on line #48. (Another good
thing about when everyone else had this problem was you
could put small attachments in posts which microsoft took
away.) Back up ur registry then import the key.
Everything should work.
