How to delete Temporary Internet Files?
To delete Temporary Internet Files manually, do the following things:
- Start Internet Explorer and click Tools menu, then select
Internet Options... from this menu. This will open the Internet Options
window.
-
Click General tab and then find in the section
Temporary Internet Files the button Delete Files...
and click it. A new dialog box opens.
-
In the Delete Files dialog box, click to select
the Delete all offline content check box if you
want to delete all Web page content that you have made available offline.
-
Click OK to delete the files. Note that if you are doing this for the first time,
the deleting can take a large amount of time, so be patient.
WARNING! This will most probably delete all visible items in the
Temporary Internet Files folder (except cookies) but a number of invisible traces may
remain in the index.dat files. The only way to be sure that you are getting rid of all
traces for good is the usage of specialized privacy protection program like
Mil Shield.

Mil Shield is a powerful privacy protection program that was designed specifically to clean
and shred the Temporary Internet Files. Additional benefit is the ability to preserve the tracks from
some chosen by you sites (selective cleaning), which makes your browsing more comfortable and safe
(it is rather suspicious to always have empty history, cookies and Temporary Internet Files - it is better
to leave some tracks from "innocent" sites). Mil Shield also cleans all other tracks as index.dat files,
cookies, history, cache, AutoComplete records, UserData records, history of recently used folders and
documents and many more.
