Persistent Temporary Internet Files

[SeaBreezin04]

I have about a dozen Temporary Internet Files which I cannot delete.
Delete, Shift+Delete, moving to Recycle Bin don't work.

I tried setting the system time ahead and deleting, still nada.

Suggestions are appreciated.

Assuming you are using Internet Explorer, use the tool intended for this
in Menu: Tools/Internet Options, Tab: General. Don't use Explorer to do
this directly.

Hope this is useful to you. Let us know.

Probably spyware, download, install, update and run the
two spyware removal tools linked below

Thanks Rob. The tool worked perfectly. I never knew it was there. As you
could tell from my post I was doing it the old fashioned way.

I learn something new every day.

JAX thanks. It wasn't spyware. There were gifs from an NFL site I went to
last August. Like the Carolina Panthers logo and other goofy stuff.

Anyway, I used the Delete Files tool available in Internet Explorer and it
worked.

Hi CM,

I read Rob's post, I had assumed you had already done that. What I offered
would do no harm anyway.

Cheers, JAX
