Anyone know how I can delete the index. dat file in the
Content.IE5 folder (Temporary Internet file)? It seems to
get getter bigger...

Thanks alot!
 
Add the command below to the RunOnce key in the registry.
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce

Create a new String value in the RunOnce key named
RemoveIndex.dat
Double-click "RemoveIndex.dat"
Type the following under Value data:

cmd /c del /s /q c:\docume~1\index.dat

Restart the computer.

This deletes all index.dat files under
C:\Documents and Settings\
one time only.

To delete the files each time Windows starts,
add the command to the Run key instead of RunOnce.
