Can I purge the IE 6.0 toolbar memory?

S

Last week my son came to visit me and I caught him
looking at porn. I banned him from my computer and
purged the temporary internet files and deleted the
cookies. I also cleared out Auto-complete. I ran a Spybot
program and a Lavasoft Ad Aware program and even used a
content purity scanner. Then I defragged the disk.
Still when I run the Spybot program I notice it scanning
a couple of files such as "Adult Links" and "Live
Girls". They must not be data miners or the program
could bring them up and delete them. I am thinking maybe
IE 6.0 keeps a memory of what has been typed into it
other than temp. files and Auto-complete. Can anyone
help me? I want this off my computer. I run Win XP.

Spybot is checking everything that is in it's definition
file. Some of tehse entries have funcky names. This
doesn't mean that it's scanning the files on your
computer. If in doubt, launch a search on your machine
for *adult* and *xxx* and see if it turns up something.
My best guess, if you delete the temp files, history and
autocomplete, all should be gone, unless your son has
saved files on your HD himself !
