Can your batch file fix a corrupted cache?
A corrupted cache was causing my IE problems.

From PurgeIE help:

What is meant by "Corrupted Cache"?

Basically, this means that there is an error in one of the primary Internet Explorer folders. The error could be in one of the 'Index.dat' files or one of the data files.

"Corrupted Cache" is generally caused by power failures, system failures and improper shutdown procedures as any of these can prevent the complete updating of the cache on your harddrive.

_____________________________________

What are some of the Symptoms of Corrupted Cache?

· I.E. fails when you begin to type into the URL Address field. This is generally due to a Corruption of the 'Visited URLs' Index.dat file which is used for the AutoComplete function. This Index.dat file is located in the upper level of the History folder.

· I.E. fails when you try to access a Web page that you have accessed recently. The failure is due to the Web page within the cache being in error or its URL entry in the Cache's Index.dat file being in error. This could also be due to a bad Cookie file, etc..

· I.E. fails when you press the 'back' button. This is the same as the previous symptom.
