It might help when searching through that folder to reduce the search to smaller sections--instead of searching for "ends with .html" for example, search for "starts with Extension#1" or "Extension#2". There's another way to retrieve some files you DO want out of that Downloads folder--assuming you still have the message the attachment came with, open the message and drag the attachment onto the desktop or onto a folder where you want to put it. This is usually what I do with attachments that I want to keep when I first receive them. So in general, my Dowloads folder is just junk. --Anna ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
