where is Internet Explorer Cache located?
What is a "cookie threat"?
Cookies are located in C:\Users\username\Cookies\Low On the IE PrivacyAdvanced tab you can block all 3rd party cookies. As of recently Trend is known to cause problems in Vista. I suggest you replace Trend with the free AVG http://free.grisoft.com/ or Avast http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html, and Windows Firewall and Windows Defender. Disabling Trend is not enough. You need to completely uninstall it. ------- *Report back, please* [When responding to posts, please include the post(s) you are replying to so that others may learn and benefit from the issue] [How to ask a question] http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555375 "Anthony B" wrote in message ...

You can delete IE7's cookies he
control panel/internet options/general tab/browsing history/delete/delete cookies The TIFF (temporary internet files folder) is hidden by default. If you want to view it in explorer you have to go into folder options and unhide all files. FWIW, it's a lot easier to use Ccleaner to delete the various components of the IE cache.

Hi, Anthony.
As in the past several generations of IE, click Tools | Internet Options | General, then Settings under Browser history. Look for Current Location. That's where to find the TIF, but be aware that these are NOT like other Windows/Vista files! Use the buttons here to view and manage your cookies. Don't try to use Windows Explorer and other normal tools. RC -- R. C.

I do so daily with a batch file that deletes only selected cookies. Why? I block all cookies by default, and make an exception as and when I need to. IE makes that really easy, with the icon in the status bar. ss. |
