Clearing out Temporary Internet files automatically

[gkd_uk]

Most of us will clear out our Temporary Internet files, once a week. But for those who don't know, you can set this up to empty automatically when you exit from Internet Explorer.

Here is how:

1) Click Tools
2) Click Internet Options
3) Click Advanced
4) Go down to the security section and tick 'Empty Temporary Internet files when browser is closed'
5) Click OK

Yes, it can be:

Tools > Options > Privacy > and check box "Always clear data when I close..."

Thanks for that SkinnerW. I`ve just done what you wrote which should keep things a little cleaner now.
