and so on......

Yes trend is installed on the system

solved - thank you

Do you have Trend Micro?

Since they are .tmp files, you can delete the lot. Chances are that one of
them will be locked. If so then you can use oh.exe to find out what
application locked it. You can get oh.exe from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en.
It will demand a reboot before you can use it.

This should steer you in the right direction.

Would you care to post the solution, for the benefit of other readers of
this thread?
