Content IE5 - virtual memory too low

[adfk]

I have a bunch of files in my temporary files folder that cannot be removed. The are 3.25 GB large. They have strange filenames like for example §`
. I have tried to run chkdsk but it doesn´t find any problems.

What should i do?

My virtual memory is also too low. I keep getting these messages that I have too little memory. I try too change it but nothing happens, it´s still 0 MB in page file.

What can i do to fix this?

You're using IE5 with XP Professional?

The folder cannot be removed because of the files. I have the latest IE6..

Try changing the location of the temporary internet files but do not copy the files when it asks you to.

Launch IE
Navigate to:
Tools --> options --> Temporary Internet Files --> Settings

Click on the Move Folder Button. Choose a location to store the temporary internet files.
DO NOT MOVE the current files to the new location.

When IE exits. Delete the old Temporary Internet Files Location.

Have you tried deleting in safe mode? What error do you get when you try to delete?

Does running Disk Cleanup from System Tools work. Your Recycle Bin might be too small to delete files of this size.
