It used to be that when I returned to a site, like
browsing off to a link from a site, the previous site
would have all the pictures, etc. still in the cache, but
now when I browse to a link and return to a site,
everything has to load up again. Also if I want to save
a picture by right clicking and doing a "save as" it
always comes up as "untitled" instead of the name of the
pic from the site. What have I done and how do I get
this thing back to work like it used to, it takes forever
to browse now. Videos (mpg, avi, etc) save fine, with
the site name.

Thanks
Dave
 
Dave,
Those symptoms indicate a cache that's full or corrupted. Delete the
temporary Internet Files folder. A new one will be created on restart. set
the size of the new TIF folder to about 50MB and clear it occasionally.

Don,

Great, Thanks. I found 3 Folders by the name of TIF, 2
of them would delete, but the one under Local Settings
would not delete, but I deleted most of the files and the
ones that would not delete got deleted when I went
to "delete the TIF" in IE, it took a while to think about
it in IE. All is working fine now. For some reason I can
only set the cache to 32MB in IE.

Many Thanks, this has been bugging me for about a month
now,

Dave

32 MB is big enough.
 
Dave,
If you're still following this thread...
I left out an important link.

How To Delete the Internet Explorer Temporary Internet Files:
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/delcache.htm

My answer makes much more sense with this link included. Doesn't it?
