    Hiya Bat,

    If you mean screen freeze in your browser or in a specific program if you press the

    Ctrl Alt Del, buttons at the same time it will bring up the windows task manager window, then you find the program that has frozen in the list under applications, click on it it, then click end task.

    This will close down your browser or any other application that is frozen and let you restart it, without having to reboot.

    Ps sometimes it takes a while for it to close it.

    Hope this helps lass :wink:

    Right I,ve just had ANOTHER poxy screen freeze, and I pressed those buttons you said about Tempy and the windows task manager appeared and there was nothing under applications atall. When I tried to close that window it wouldnt work so I had to re boot again…grrrrrrrr. BUT before it shut down a window came up with “The Awt toolkitwindow” end task. what in the name of Christ is that then? I,ve had that message before. Bloody machine, grrrrrrrrrr@it. :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

    I haven’t a clue what it is, I don’t think you need it though! :lol:

    It might be difficult to uninstall so try this:
    > Start
    > Run
    Type msconfig
    > OK
    > Startup
    See if it’s in there, if it is uncheck it.
    When you restart your pc you’ll get a messege about using selective startup.
    Tick ‘Don’t show this again’ and you should be sorted. :wink:
