I have been working on cleaning up my computer... after I realized I had 78 processes going on
 What I found I thought would be interesting, and perhaps helpful to some here: Everytime I have updated my Java (especially for here, for chat) it DOESN"T JUST UPDATE the old...but INSTALLS a complete Java with the update. Go to Start, click Control Panel, click Add/Remove Programs and view your listing. I found four (4) Java programs with updates, so I kept the one with the latest update included (#10) and removed the other Java programs! Ah ha! more speed

How was your Java listed in your program list? - for while I can only see 1-version of Java - it has 5 different updates listed.

It lists as J2SE Runtime environment 5.0 Update 10. 120.00 MB
Each of the other "updates" were smaller numbers (naturally) and each carried incrementally more use of space... the last before 10 was eating 118 MB  the one before that was like 115 MB... all on the disk.

This what I have...... so are YOU saying that I should delete all of them except for # 11?
J2SE Runtime environment 5.0 Update 11 120.00 MB J2SE Runtime environment 5.0 Update 10 120.00 MB J2SE Runtime environment 5.0 Update 09 119.00 MB J2SE Runtime environment 5.0 Update 06 119.00 MB J2SE Runtime environment 5.0 Update SE v1.4.2 (61.9 MB) |

Yep. As you can see by the sizes, the latter updates include the previous ones. (And looks like I need another update
 )  So you can clear nearly 360MB from your computer.
