Uh, proofread?
I *think* that will delete everything in the Windows folder...
Well, I tested it, and it doesn't under XP, but I'd be afraid to try
it on other versions of Windows.
Should be DEL *.TMP
In any event, there *should* not be any *.TMP files in C:\WINDOWS.
DEL %TEMP% and DEL %TMP% should be sufficient.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
