44956 2002-04-21 14:11:00 Good find tweak'e,

However, I already have Cacheman running. Would you suggest leaving Cacheman on at the same time, or turn it off for Cache Sentry to do its job well.

Cheers.

44957 2002-04-21 23:43:00 there is no need to run cacheman all the time. cacheman is a WINDOWS cache tweaker(set it and forget it). cache sentry is an INTERNET EXPLORER cache program which runs all the time(when ie is in use). Guest (0)
44958 2002-04-22 12:48:00 I have run CacheSentry a few times (in fact I'm well overdue for a re-run) and it seems to work well. The only problem I have struck is that it seems to clear out the History and Favourites folders although it is not supposed to. The next time I run it I am going to try renaming these folders beforehand to see if this will protect them.

Although it requires a bit of chasing around I think it is worthwhile following up all the relevant info links on the site. If everything he says is true it is rather illuminating.

One point that is made somewhere is that it is apparently important to set the cache size in IE to much, much larger than you set it in CacheSentry. This is to ensure that IE never gets triggered do any cache clearing.

I think CS is worth a try.
