temporary internet files

[dephcon]

hello, i was jest wondering if anyone knew of an easy way of deleting your temporary internet files [including cookies], or even if you know how to clear your history on ie5. any help would be appreciated, thanx

Your temp Internet files is located on the system drive.

If you running Win98:
You will find it under
?:\>Windows\profiles\user name\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5,

If you have only one login or running Win95 you will find it under
?:\>Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5

If you are running WinNT 4.0
You will find it under
?:\>Winnt\profiles\user id\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5

In this directory you will find various directories, in these directories you
Will find the temp Internet files.

Your IE5 history is stored in directory called History, how to delete this via
Code I have not tried yet.

If you want to be able to delete all file in these directories programmatically
Have a look at you DIR function in the help file there is a sample of how to
Go trough directories and distinguishing between files and directories.

Take that source code modify it for you purposes and have fun.

Then use the Kill function to delete the files.

Hope it helps.
