When I attempt to defragment my C drive it appears to do
so and then repeatedly comes up with the message "drive
contents changed restartin.' I have no opened programs.
Can someone help me to fix this?

Either try running Defrag in Safe Mode and/or download and run ScanDefrag
v4.2a.

This is a FREE utility, written by several well respected contributors to
these News Groups and has been designed to run several original MS utilities
through a 'filter' which eliminates the usual junk which stops Defrag (and
Scandisk) from running properly in Normal Mode - as you are already
experiencing <g>

You can get ScanDefrag at either of the two sites below - and be sure to
read the associated notes for setting it up:

HTH and good luck

Disconnect from the internet, if you have a DSL or cable
connection then you are always recieving incoming info.
This will change your drive contents. No need to disable
anything or defrag in safe mode. Just lose the internet
connection.
