OK, thanks for the advice. I made the mistake of leaving my screen saver and
power management stuff on the first time I tried to defrag. I did turn them
off the second time. There is bunch of programs in the (sys tray?) in the
bottom right screen (this is Win 98 BTW). Do these count as running programs?
I think what I'll do in the future is run it in Safe Mode. And I'll try and
do regularly because I always forget and leave it for ages!
