Didn't want to imply that; I was just reminiscing of "the good old
times". ;-)

OK, I shortened the exact procedure. At shut down Win9x exits running
programmes, which prompt you to save open files or whatever they are
designed to do. When these programmes exit, *they* usually clear up
their specific temp files (and what else there is left). Some even
have a special option for it (IE and other browsers for Temp Internet
files).
