I have deleted the Deleted Items.dbx file a bunch of times and have not had any problems.. I am running Windows XP and OE 6 with all the updates and patches from Microsoft.

I used to do that all of the time on my old system, but I had heard it was questionable in OE 6, so I've never done it. We'll have to find a more current link to the program ! cris ----- Original Message ----- From: TechRose@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx To: pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Saturday, August 16, 2003 5:45 PM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: Zone Alarm always rated low---Why??? I could not tell from the link what version of cleanup this is...but the current version is 3.1. I have used this program for a couple of years and love it. It scared the heck out of me the first time I ran it...It ran for what seemed like hours..and cleaned up over 1.5 gb of 'junk'. (I really think it was 3.5 GB, but I am just not sure. What a difference it makes! The new version allows you to add directories to it that you would like to have cleaned up/deleted when you run the program. It is very easy to customize and run. It typically runs from 15-45 seconds each night before I shut down. But, if I have been very busy, it may run longer. One thing I have noticed is that my Deleted Items.dbx file does not get deleted ever!. I have OE set up to delete mail in the deleted folder when I shut down OE. The mail does not appear in the folder, but it there is still a Deleted Items.dbx file that continues to grow in the folder with all the .dbx files for OE. So, I have added a line to Cleanup - In the Customize box, to delete the Deleted Items.dbx file . There is no harm in doing that as when you open OE, it creates a new Deleted Items.dbx file. I cannot say enough good things about Cleanup. I recommend it to everyone every chance I get.
