Registry key to disable IE caching (temporary internet files)

[Guest]

I have many Citrix users who logon Citrix servers (Citrix Xpa 1.0 for Win2k
server) to run Internet Explorer 6.0 which caches temporary internet files.
Temporary internet files of those Citrix users consume quite a lot disk space
of my Citrix server.

Is there a global registry key for me to turn off the caching of Internet
Explorer 6.0 on that Citrix server? As a result, my Citrix users will not
have their internet temporary files cached on the drive of my Citrix server.

You can set a Group Policy to have IE empty it's TIF when closed - as the
setting is present on the Advanced tab in Internet Options:

Here's info on the registry key involved:

You cannot disable the TIF completely as IE needs to use it as it's working
during its session.

Not familiar with Citrix, so I don't know how that would affect the above
info.

here is the key

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Setup\7.0]
"DoNotAllowIE70"=dword:00000001

That's not what he asked.
