Answer 4

ok with cookies comes temporary files.

when ever you go to a web site, your computer downloads the entire site and stores it in a file.

after 60 days it deletes them, but by that time its slowed your computer down.

just by going control panel/ internet options it might not get every thing for example the history box in google.

so try this free program. i use it and it's awesome
