I get a message about this when I sometimes try to cross a Sim line. It kicks me from the game. Happens most north of mauve but not the only place. If I remember right you have to clear some cashe.. where, how, when and why?

Uninstall. Reinstall. If it happens continuously after that, contact support, though I'm not sure they're going to be able to give you many good answers.

Crimson:

Also try clearing out the contents of your Windows Temp folder at c:\Documents and Settings\(yourusername)\Local Settings and defragment your hard drive.

Remember, when people say "uninstall and reinstall" they mean that you actually have to uninstall SL first. Just reinstalling a new copy won't fix the cache settings, which is the whole point of the exercise. :)

Ok uninstalled the game. Went to 2ed life and reinstalled. Cleaned out the Temp file of 1.70g. all in last hour. Defraged 2 weeks ago.

This time I was leaving mauve by way of green (Flying). I teleported 10 minutes before that across the world and back no problem.

Crashed 5 minutes ago with the same message :mad:
now what?

The Mangled network data thing. . . you aren't by any chance trying to run SL with a wireless network are you? (Seems like this came up as an issue before)

Email support. Email them now, because they don't work on weekends.

I can't guarantee you'll get a response, because I haven't gotten a response from them in weeks, but... *shrugs* Who knows.

Thats why Im here its faster. lol
It happened again today. I can make it happen almost everytime by going north into Chartreuse. Other than that it seems random. Sometimes when I cross a sim sometimes when I teleport. I need some help and not the standard answer for this one as it dosent work.

No, it's NOT faster. Have you gotten an answer yet? It's been, what, a day at least? You may be getting responses, but we can't help you.

That folder contains non-SL data.

Unless LL intends to provide support for the havoc and mayhem they will cause to other applications on deleting their temp data, I strongly recommend that you stop recommending this, until you create a specific SecondLife folder under there which can then be deleted.
