TMP folder freeze when i try to open it...
My computer can not use acrobat reader at the moment, so I went to the online support of my IBM Netvista desktop, it said because the TEMP folder is too big. So I try to open Documents and Setting/local setting/temp/, the folder is 200MB, but when I try to open it the computer just freezing, any idea?

The way I'd do it (and I'm sure there are a hundred other ways to accomplish
the same task) is to get to a command line.
Start->Run
cmd [Enter key]
cd \docu* [Enter key]
cd local* [Enter key]
rd /s /q temp [Enter key]

Since the temp dir is necessary, you'll probably have to reboot for the OS
to automatically rebuild the temp directory unless some locked files in the
temp dir aren't removed.

You may want to run chkdsk on that drive. Right-click on the Drive icon,
Properties, Tools, Check now.
