There still may be a rogue program or cookie that is trying to phone home in there. Some of them are really bad after they find no internet connection, they just keep on polling and polling and polling.

No matter what after completing a song if I reboot the file is forever messed up. Any other idea why rebooting would mess up the files.




Before the reboot, the file is still playing from the default Temp location, likely C:\Temp.

After reboot and reloading the song, it plays again from the same place. Now I suspect possibility that somehow the .seq and associated wav files are not loading into that temp directory well. But can't figure out what setting you might investigate exactly.

Have you changed your disk cache size from the "let windows manage" setting?
