Gwinny,
I don’t know much about computers but I suspect I have 5.0 Beta (we do Microsoft's quality control work free) version.
------- Ordeal #1
To delete cookies:
Disclaimer: I don’t know if this works! I have not tried it. (There....)
Select Tools..... Internet Options.....Security Settings.....Custom level
Second major “paragraph” is “Cookies”..... select disable.
------- Ordeal #2
At the end of each session, or once a day,...er,... okay, sometimes once
every two days, I delete the “Temporary Internet Files” and “Clear History”
as follows:
Select Tools.....General
Delete and Clear as indicated by the little boxes.
------- Ordeal #3
Also every day or so, I clean out all the junk I know how to delete:
I use “Windows Explorer” (because I have it programmed into my keyboard
as a shortcut.... that’s about as “technical” as I can manage!)
Open folder “Windows”
Open folder “Cookies”; click on a cookie; right button select all & delete ‘em
all!
Open folder “History” - See if Ordeal #2 deleted everything. Delete as
needed.
Open folder “Recent” - Delete it all
Open folder “Temp” - Kill! Kill!
Open folder “Temporary files” - Ordeal #2 should have wiped out everything,
but I still open every folder here and make sure everything is gone.
EMPTY RECYCLE BIN

The cookies for TFL get lost this way, but if you have 50 or so cookies it’s too
danged time-consuming to use “Quick View” or “Properties” to see which
cookies are TFL and which aren’t. So I delete ‘em all and reset “preferences”
when I come back to TFL
-------
All,
If there is a better way (or if this is wrong), please advise!
BTW, If all this works fine, I’m Dennis. If it screws up your computer, this is really
Art Eatman using Dennis’ computer.
