Have just seen the guidance for deleting Temporary Internet Files and Cookies in XP Is it possible to view the temp. internet files in XP. It might sound silly but I prefer to see what I am deleting before the event and haven't found a site for this in XP. In Win '98 it was easy to do things this way. A very cautious deleter! Heather

Heather, In IE go to Tools > Internet Options > General tab > Temporary Internet files > Settings. You can view the files from there.

I have been trying to delete selected cookies saving the ones I recognize as sites I frequent, genealogy for example. The more I delete, the more there seems to be like they are multiplying themselves? With "copy 12" and such appearing?

Walt, Seems your going to fast and trying to do to many at one time. Your hitting Copy instead of delete. Slow down and be careful. This happens to me sometimes, at it usually means I'm going to fast. :) Art >I have been trying to delete selected cookies saving the ones I recognize as >sites I frequent, genealogy for example.

Following the instructions given, I have just looked at all of the temporary internet files that I have. There are so many that jpeg and GIF images. Can I safely delet them all of those kinds of files or do I have to be careful.? Pat At 06:48 PM 10/7/2004, dolphin213 wrote: >Walt, > >Seems your going to fast and trying to do to many at one time.
