Removing Files

Guest

I am using XP home w/sp2 IE7 and I have noticed that there are a lot of
files that I don't need whenever I run a scan. Specifically :Documents &
Settings/Owner/Local Settings/Temporary Internet Files/Content.IE5. They are
not removed when I do a disk cleanup. I used to be able to remove them on my
Windows 98 machine but I can't find them to remove them on this one.
Any ideas?

One of the easiest ways to do this is with ccleaner. www.ccleaner.com

It would need to be run in each user account to clear each set of browser
cache folders.

this will also remove cookies, but it does allow you to specify cookies you
want to keep.

I can't see them in Internet Options-view files either. These things used to
load to TIF's everytime you opened a email attachment or checked a web page
but would assign a separate tag number like "8qlodsgl" to each entry. I am
wondering why it shows IE5 when I am using IE7 unless it is something I
transferred via IntelliMover from my Win 98 machine to this one.??
