Recycle Bin

My Recycle Bin empties itself every so often when I turn the computer on or
when I reboot. It doesn't happen every time, but periodically. I can't find
any setting that will keep this from happening. Does anyone have an answer?

Trish,

Are you using a third-party system maintenance utility, which can clear the TEMP/ Recycle Bin at some interval? Some examples:

System Mechanic scheduler
Norton Utilities
Zone Alarm Pro with Cache cleaning schedule set
and so forth...

I finally found the setting in Zone Alarm Pro and changed it. Thanks for the
help.
