OLK folders

How long does Outlook keep the information in the OLK folders? (This is
where the temporary internet files are placed). Does Outlook purge the files
after a certain time frame? I am concerned about security from outside of
our network.

IIRC: If you open the message, open the attachment, close the atachment and
then close the message the temp file should be deleted automatically.
Clearing the Temporary Internet Files folder by using the Internet Options
in Control Panel should clear the folder as well.

If you really want to get rid of the folder you can relocate it by changing
the OutlookSecureTempFolder registry key or create a logoff script which
cleares the folder
