    I noticed that after defragging and getting rid of temporary internet files using disk cleanup, the number of fragmented files keeps rising when I analyze my drive. Is this because of the different internet sites I visit? Does that increase the number of fragmented files?

    what tool r u using?

    no - u might want to verify that u have enough disk space for system file performance

    I prefer to keep my hdd at15-20% free disk space, b.u. the xtra files onto cds or dvds or external hdd

    cheers ...

    If it is the built-in defrag program, let us see the log.
