I meant, do you actually have a trace.log on your machine?
Where in the registry?
To copy a registry key name
1. In the registry tree (on the left), right click a registry key.
2. Select Copy Key Name.
3. Paste the name of the registry key into another program or document.

Thank You very much for the information. I disabled Performance Logs and
Alerts Service on the Control Panel, but the files still remain and I
still can not delete them except in Safe Mode, but, the return again on
Normal Startup. When I try to open them they say that the file is in
use. Please close any programs using the file aand delete. I tried to
"Run" smlogsvc.exe but, nothing happens. Any other suggestions would
greatly be appreciated. Looking forward to your assitance. Regards,

Programs such as EasyCleaner can create Perflib_Perfdataxxx.dat files.
Here's more than you may want to know.
Perflib stands for Performance Library. Perfdata stands for
Performance Data.
The %SystemRoot%\System32\Perflib_Perfdataxxx.dat files are created by
the System Monitor. And/or
%userprofile%\Local Settings\Temp\Perflib_Perfdataxxx.dat.
or
C:\Documents and Settings\Your Name Here\Local
Settings\Temp\Perflib_Perfdataxxx.dat. When you shutdown normally, the
file should be deleted.
If you have an abormal shutdown, these files can become orphaned, and
accumulate on your computer.
Under some yet to be determined circumstances, these files can become
orphaned during normal operation.
The Windows Performance tool is composed of two parts: System Monitor
and Performance Logs and Alerts. With System Monitor, you can collect
and view real-time data about memory, disk, processor, network, and
other activity in graph, histogram, or report form.
To open Performance...
Start | Run | Type: perfmon.msc | Click OK
You can view this by opening the Task Manager. The Performance tab
displays a dynamic overview of your computer's performance, such as CPU
and various kinds of memory usage.

Description
The Perflib subkey stores configuration data for the Windows
Performance Library, which collects and organizes data for performance
tools, such as System Monitor.
In addition to entries, the Perflib subkey contains a Language-code
subkey for each spoken language you configure for Windows 2000. The
Language-code subkey stores performance counter names and their
descriptions in the specified language. The Language-code subkey is
named for the language code for that language. For example, the
counters and descriptions for the English language are stored in a
subkey named 009, the language code for English (United States).

Every time I reboot the above captioned files change their names ever
so slightly: ie: Perflib_Perfdata_0d.dat or Perflib_Perfdata_a0.dat ,
etc. These files appear in Windows\temp and Documents and
Settings\Local|temp. I have been told that these files are created by
System Monitor. They may be created because of an improper shut down
of a program or may be Orphaned Files left by the System Monitor. In
safe mode they can be deleted but, immediately return when system is
restarted normally. I can not open the files. I would appreciate any
asistance you may offer that will rid me of these annoying files.
Thanks in Advance for your assistance. Chefbigfeet
