R Ramesh [MVP] Jan 6, 2004 #2 Jammie, You won't be able to delete files from "Background" tab. You need to move the image files away from these folders: C:\WINDOWS C:\WINDOWS\WEB\WALLPAPER C:\Documents and Settings\<USER NAME>\My Documents\My Pictures C:\Documents and Settings\<USER NAME>\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer C:\Program Files\Plus!\Themes Create a directory somewhere else and place your image files there. -- Ramesh - Microsoft MVP http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k ------------------------------------------- How to block Pop-ups?: http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k/Popups.htm Using ToolbarCop to remove the unwanted Toolband, Toolbar Icons and BHO: http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k/toolbarcop.htm
