Can't delete history files

Guest

I have what appear to be two files that I can't delete that are called
internet history files in Norton clean sweep. They started out as 256kb and
have grown to 460kb. I have tried deleting them from explorer using internet
options and checking the delete off line content, I have tried using Norton
clean sweep and I have used windows explorer and tried to find the files to
no avail. How can I delete these files before they grow to a megabyte or
larger?

Hi,
Knowing the filenames or the folder that contains them would help. But,
regardless, deleting the HIstory folder will surely delete these files.
Follow the instructions that apply to your version of Windows at

Hope this helps,
