what are gif files used for and can they be deleted?
once again I'm on a quest of ridding windows 98se of anything that is of no use, ultimite goal is to have a OS with the least amount of files needed to still operate.
I know, just can't leave well enough alone.

a gif file is a picture file, Graphic Interchange Format, it's almost like a JPG or JPEG picutre, it's just compressed differently and can do a little more than JPGs can

uh, why do you want to delete everything?

more space, very small hard drive . like 5 gig, old toshiba 2060 laptop. all i run is wordpad and internet explorer to go online.
plus would you know why it freezes up after 15 minutes while chatting?
