Only thing that comes to mind that would be that large is a backup of somekind. Then select each process and check the File handles to see if any are in the Windows\Temp folder. Set the Highlight duration to the max (9 seconds, Options | Difference Highlight Duration) Turn on the Handles window in the lower pane (CTRL+H, or View | Lower Pane View | Handles) Might try sysinternals ProcessExplorer, it you can catch it when those files are being created. I honestly haven't worked enough with Windows Servers to know where to go to begin to look. If I do a hard reboot, then the problem will go away until the next time it comes around. At the time this is happening, there is nobody browsing. This goes on for about 20 minutes and when all is said and done the Temp folder goes from about 500 mb to 15+ gigs. If I walk over to the server and open up the temp folder (which takes a moment to open), I can slowly see the temp files getting bigger. When I get disconnected, I know its creating the temp files.


email goes down as does the network folders stored on the server. Also, the temp files will be created randomly and tremendously slow down the server to the point that everything remote goes offline. There is occassionally someone that will use it to surf, but nothing that would prompt multiple gigs of temp files. The server is really only used for Filemaker Pro, Exchange, and User Accounts.
