Subject: [opendos] where does XMSWAP.TMP come from?
Sender: owner-opendos AT mail DOT tacoma DOT net

Occasionally I look at drive C: and find it is full.
Looking in the root directory, I come across a huge file (50MB)
called XMSWAP.TMP (or similar).

Does anyone know which program is leaving it behind?

Suspects are:

1. EMM386
2. Windows

I would like to know why it is 50Mb, as I only have 16mb in the system, and
I can't think of any combination that might bring it up to 50.

Any ideas?
