Continuing on the temp files theme. Go to internet properties page and
click on the right tab. Scroll down to the bottom to the security
section. There is a box for delete temporary internet files when
exiting IE. Place a checkmark there. Go back to the general tab and
delete temp files including offline files. Some set the IE cache to
100 megs. On XP and 2000 boxes you need to do this for each user
account. This keep the hard drive cleaner, defrag and av scans go
faster, and dormant virus are deleted when you exit IE. Things just
work better with these settings.
More general housekeeping. I do a search for *.tmp looking inside
hidden folders and delete them. I also search for *.dmp. After that is
done a defrag is run. Office can make thousands of temp files that are
not deleted. Once again defrag and av scans go faster with a cleaner
hard drive.
