Temporary Internet Files

The Delete Browsing History window should now be visible, overlaying your main browser window. The first section in this window deals with Temporary Internet Files. Internet Explorer stores images, multimedia files, and even full copies of web pages that you have visited in an effort to reduce load time on your next visit to that page.

To remove all of these temporary files from your hard drive, click on the button labeled Delete files.... A message dialog will then appear asking Are you sure you want to delete all temporary Internet Explorer files? Click on the Yes button. All of your temporary Internet files have now been permanently removed.
