I think it leaves a bunch of cookies. See what it looks like before you delete -- there's more files of different types.

yes, they are the ones that should be deleted. if under temporary internet files, you clicked settings, empty folder, yes, OK, OK... i'm sure the files will be gone. maybe you needed to click OK to close the page, instead of cancel. or, with the files still showing when you click on the 'view files' button, you can click edit, select all, file, delete, then close and OK. keep im mind that these files build up super quickly. sometimes just one or two website visits may generate a dozen temp files. :) mark

Yes, AT, what you have left when you view files is the, "dreaded cookies".....LOL What you do to get rid of them is, go to Edit, Select All, then go to File and Delete, at the top of the screen and when a box comes up asking "are you sure you want to delete cookie" click yes..you may have to click for each cookie until they are all gone..or that is the only way I could get rid of them.. I just discovered on IE5, I only have to click yes on one box to get rid of them.. with IE4, I had to delete them one by one.. hope this helps gyp
