I am running Vista Home basic on an E Machine. I had trouble getting my printer to print but SuperFuzz and others fixed that for me. Thanks. Now the printer works except when I try to use the print icon on my home page. If I have something on my home page that I want to print I thought I just clicked on the print icon and it printed. Does not happen. Any suggestions? Thanks Bob

Hello Bob,
Double check to see if the warning box under step 3 in METHOD TWO in the tutorial below may be what is causing this for you.

Thanks for the tutorial. So far I have manually deleted the temp. There must have been 20 or 30 of them. My question is: Isn't there a way to get rid of them automatically. I presume these are files generated just to do some job and when that job is done they are of no further use. If you don't get rid of them pretty soon your free space would overflow. So far my print icon does not work but I am going to review what you said and try again. Thanks Shawn

You're welcome Bob.
Sure, you can use Disk Cleanup to cleanup the temp and junk files every so often. Another option is the free program CCleaner. It does a great job of cleaning up junk files.
Did you get the printing issue in IE sorted?

I have been slow getting back to you because I have been with Verizon. They tried a number of things. I can print if I go to Windows mail but I can not print from my home page. They gave up and said it was printer settings and go to HP. I don't have time tonight but will try that tomarrow. I will let you know if I ever get the problem straighten out. Many thanks for your time. People like you have helped me a lot. Bob

Last night before I quit I deleted by hand, one at a time, all the temp except "low" and a couple of others. I had about a half dozen left. This morning I checked and there was 24 temp files. I did some other things and went back and checked the temp file and there were 17 files I ran CCleaner and Dish Cleaner and it did not affect anything that I can tell. Is this normal or do I have problems I don't know about? Why does some of the temp files go away but CCleaner will not delete them? Have not contacted HP yet but will try today. Bob
One other thing, when I run Disk cleanup the panel says that there is nothing in the temp file and when I use %temp% there are 17 items . Bob

Bob,
You will always have temp files while you are working in Vista installing, saving, deleting, and etc... to files. It's normal. By default Disk Cleanup will not delete any temp files unless they are older than a week. By default CCleaner will not delete temp files unless they are older than 48 hours. However in CCleaner, you can click on Options, Advanced, and uncheck the "Only delete files in Windows Temp folders older than 48 hours" to delete all of them all of the time with CCleaner.

OK here is what I have learned the passed 2 days. I chated with Verizon several times but they finally gave up and said contact HP (that my printer mfg) because it was a printer setting problem. I contacted HP and the first person worked about an hour and said she would send instructions that would fix the problem, It did not. The second HP person worked over an hour and finally had me turn off the security system. That worked. The printer printed e-mail from the home page. However when I put the security back on the printer would not print. I am running TrendMicro security. When I go to Windows security center everything is on. Does this mean that I am running two security systems? I could not figure out how to turn off Windows security. If I am running 2 securities then maybe that is interfering with the printer. Any suggestions?
Thanks Shawn for your last post. It helped explain things. Bob

I'm sure that there is probably a setting in TrendMicro to allow you to print with security turned on, but I'm not familiar with that program's settings though. 
You might check with Trend Micro's support to see if this may be known issue with that.

Thanks for the reply. TrendMicro was not helpful. They said that as long as their icon was showing in the lower right corner of the monitor they were OK. They did not offer any help to determine if two security programs were running. Microsoft was even worse. They said that if Windows was installed by the manufactor go back to them. In other words "don't bother us with problems". Today I will try E Machines and see if they will help. I need to find out if I am running two security programs at once and how to get rid of Windows security. Bob

You can open the Security Center from within the Control Panel (Classic View) to see what security programs are installed and turned on. By default, Windows Firewall is the only security feature of Vista that you will need to turn off if you have a 3rd party firewall program installed.
From your description though, it most likely is going to be a setting in Trend Micro that needs to be set to allow printing to work for you like that.

You were right. The problem was TrendMicro settings. I worked with them until they suggested that they could fix it if I would take an upgrade - at more money. I said just give me a refund. I then went back to Norton. It may not be the best but it works. I can now print from my home page. The Norton tech that put me back on said that TrendMicro probably had a conflick with the printer driver. I thank every one who offered advise about my problem which is now solved. Bob

Bob, I'm happy to here that you got it sorted.
Shame on TrendMicro. They should have offered you a free patch, upgrade, or something since their product did not work as advertised to keep a customer happy.
