Hi everyone,

I KNOW that this issue has come up before with others BUT I cannot
remember where, and what the solution is. :-(

When I download files via Firefox my "A" drive keeps getting accessed.
Even though I am saving to C:. I am not sure whether the problem is my
'98 system or Firefox.

I usually save to C: but the other week I saved to A:. I think that's
when my problem started. Has anyone here got the fix for this please ?

Regards, John.

Try -> Tools -> Options -> Privacy -> Download Manager History
....clear it. Try set a default download location (Save all files to
this folder: ) under Tools -> Options -> Downloads.

All the best,

Also try to clear your Windows MRU list (most recently used).
Fx with MRU blaster
