next time, try just deleting your temporary files. i don't normally need to crumble my cookies when i run into that problem. you might not, either.

Yeah that's what I thought too so I did that and it still would not work. So I tried everything I could think of to not delete my cookies, but finally I had to bite the bullet. Must have been one dang cookie hanging it up, that is all I can figure. I cleaned my registry, my files everything and nothing worked untill I cleaned out my cookies. Oh well, it's done now. Little by little I have to resign in everywhere. Again, BLAH

When I delete cookies that doesn't take out the sign in items they stay until i delete temp files.

you can also go to your main start menu and hit run

type in prefetch when it opens delete all these are all sites that are stored just from looking at them. first time i had almost 700 and boy did my puter run fast after i got rid of them lol

good luck

Aren't those the temp files? Because I delete those about every other day or so.

Hmmm, I am going to check it out. I have a program called Easy Cleaner that I run every once in a while, and it supposely cleans all the files but I wonder. First I am going to do what you said. Then wait a few days, run Easy Cleaner and the the prefetch to see. Thanks, never heard this before. I love to learn new things!
