Thanks for the heads up chachazz.

Yeah thanks and shame this doesn't resolve the issue some of us are having with Font Rendering or the strange "Mozilla-Temp-Files" issue.

They're quite aware and working on the font issue.

I should, but I'm not sure if it's a bug or not, they haven't said anything about it despite me asking them.

/rant on

Unfortunately many programs create and then leave behind temporary files and folders these days Have a look in your %temp% folder (usually C:\Windows\Temp) sometime. I guess programmers think that cleaning up their mess isn't necessary in these days of large hard disks.

/rant off

Don't feed trolls--it only makes them grow!

Yeah I cleaned out 700mb of stuff out of my %temp% directory a couple days ago (it's been months). I used Windows 7's Disk Cleanup tool. I should probably run the thing once a month or something.

Every night, I run a .bat file that copies my data from my primary 1 TB Hard Drive to my 500 GB backup hard drive.

Basically, its just a bunch of xcopy commands.

In any case, to help solve the issue with my temp folder getting to much junk in it, I just added the following two lines of code to the end of my batch file

(note, replace xxx with your actual user profile directory name)

CD\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Temp
rmdir /s /q "C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Temp"
