I have these, too. Any temp files that don't get deleted on shutdown I tend
to blame on ZoneAlarm Pro, though Norton AntiVirus is another likely
possibility. They both make quite a production of doing things at startup
that seem to make it take even longer than ever for Windows to fully load.

Thanks Dawn. If all Word tmp files begin with ~wrd I guess my ~DF####.tmp
files are not related to Word. Anyone have any ideas whats creating them?
They are being created a few times each day even if Office is not used.
