Cookies and Temporary Internet Files
I have accumulated a large amount of cookies and temporary
internet files over the years. Can I safely delete these without impacting my system (I am running Windows ME) |

Cookies and Temporary Internet Files
Yes. Move them out in batches to your Recycle Bin (or create a new folder
on your C drive and move them there).....if your computer doesn't bleep at you in the next few days, delete them. If they are zero byte ones (or very small)....delete them immediately. For the temporary Internet Files, click on Tools in Internet Explorer, then Options......click on Delete Files AND make sure you tick off the box that says "delete offline content".......that gets rid of the thousands of 0 byte ones.
