I just found this in a folder. I've been sorting "junk" for MONTHS! I
can't BELIEVE sometimes how much stuff I (we) can accumulate "for a
rainy day."

Hope you find it helpful!


Setting The Microsoft Internet Explorer Cache Size

The size of the Microsoft Internet Explorer cache can determine how
fast you can surf the Web. However, since the cache resides on your
hard disk, its size depends on how much disk space you can afford to
use.

In this brave new world of super-sized hard disks, you may want to
increase your IE cache size. To do this, run IE and choose
Tools|Internet Options. When the dialog box opens, click the General
tab (if necessary) and then click Settings. When the Setting dialog
opens, adjust the "Amount of disk space to use" slider to increase (or
decrease, if necessary), your IE cache size.

After you make your changes, click OK. Back in Internet Options, click
OK again to close the dialog box.


Good luck!

Set it for 50 MB. Much over that and it actually slows IE down and is more
apt to become corrupt.
