Please don't kill the messenger. :) I'm using Sun JDK 1.3 and the Java runtime directory is, AFAIK, \jdk1.3\bin. The hidden directory containing the temporary files is \documents and settings\administrator\local settings\temp which I'm sure is not a runtime directory. I've repeatedly deleted all the files in this directory without any observed ill effect.

I don't know why the java implementations on Windows don't remove files when you do delete() on them, the java specification certainly doesn't mention any requirements on the method. Until somebody can answer why windows doesn't remove the files, I don't plan to give a fuck. The directory the files are created in will, in this case, be the runtime dir of the client. I think you are confusing it with an earlier syndrome of the same problem regarding the nodes file cache, which I solved by having it purge the .freenet directory every time the node starts up. _______________________________________________ Devl mailing list Devl at freenetproject.org http://www.uprizer.com/mailman/listinfo/devl
