218760 2004-02-28 03:41:00 Could anyone recommend me a good program that can delete unwanted files like temporary files,urls,history etc ? yingxuan (3330)
218761 2004-02-28 05:48:00 Most of what you need is already in your browser.

If using Internet Explorer, go to Tools/Internet Options. There you can delete temporary internet files, surfing history, cookies, content stored offline etc.

There are programs available (I use Historykill on one box) but unless you are paranoid the built in facilities are good enough for most people's needs.

218763 2004-02-29 19:57:00 I hope it clears more than that list Zayd. Are there other menus items that are not shown on your screen shot?

There is nothing much of any file-size significance there, for example it doesn't clear temporary internet files which can add up to GB if you surf regularly, and it doesn't clear cookies.

It won't wipe out the dreaded index.dat files either, but to be fair the browser won't either and you will need another third party utility or a dos batch file for that.

218764 2004-02-29 20:36:00 You might like to try this freebee (www.webattack.com) then. Pheonix (280)
218765 2004-03-01 04:07:00 That will do it alright. Just what the doctor ordered.

I assume you have tried it?

218766 2004-03-01 04:11:00 Yes, had it on for a couple of months. Use JV16 now, given "temp files" the folders to clean out and it works OK. The only reason I got rid of it was to "rationalize" the number of programs. Pheonix (280)
