Taskmon

[Jorge]

My computer keeps hanging and when I look at CloseProgram (Ctrl/Alt/Del) it
says that either Explorer or Taskmon are not responding.

What can I do?

I read that you can disable Taskmon. Is that safe and how do you do it?

(Although Candlin is a great proponent of disabling it as you request),
try this first...

(197791) - When you attempt to start or shut down Windows 98 or Windows
Millennium Edition (Me), or to start Windows Explorer, you may receive

After a bit, delete the renamed file... Applog2. Here is another way to
do it...

Deleting APPLOG Content
(a) You won't even see it, unless "START, Settings, Folder Options,
View tab" is bolted "Show all files"; may as well uncheck "Hide file
extensions..." too.
(b) "START, Find, Files or Folders, Applog"
(c) Double-click the Applog folder to open it.
(d) On the Edit menu, click Select all.
(e) On the File menu, click Delete, and then click Yes when you are
prompted to confirm the deletion.

APPLOG is used by Defrag to optimize the location of files on your
partition. (Some files in it seem extraordinarily large.) It will be
recreated and the contents will accumulate, as the second time any app
is run it generates an .LGC in that folder. (Optlog.txt, in that folder,
will be recreated, when next you Defrag. Save the old one only to retain
a record of every app that has run, at least twice, to the date of your
last Defrag.)

Thanks or Good Luck,
There may be humor in this post, and,
Naturally, you will not sue,
should things get worse after this,
