283653 - I keep getting a popup that says a file is corrupt and to run chkdsk, but when i do it doesnt fix it

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0)
Build Identifier: Firefox 1.0



I've spent a few hours looking over the reports for all the problems you have, 
and I haven't seen anything like my issue.
 
Because of what ever is wrong with your system, I cannot do a disk scan or a 
defragmenter--I keep getting the message 
regarding "u3hf36ps.default.cookies.txt.moztmp" It says its corrupt, and that I 
should run a chkdsk, but every time i do that it only temporarily fixes the 
problem.
 
 I uninstalled the firefox browser hoping to clear this up, but now I cannot 
defragment, and I would like you to fix this problem! There is no reason my 
computer should be acting up, there are no viruses and I've already run adware 
scans--please help! 

Reproducible: Always

This sounds like something much more suited to a support forum than a
reproducible bug. Try the mozillazine forums
(http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=38). However, while I'm here,
have you tried searching for and deleting that file? 

I'm going to close this as worksforme since, as far as I can tell, there's no
way to reproduce it on any other computers. If you can get it to reliably show
up on other computers, please reopen.
