Hi. I have heard that Internet Explorer has some particular folder where it stores information about sites I have visited so far, because of future speed and performance improvement. And something with cookies..?? Never mind. I also heard that it is good to empty that folder sometimes because of security reasons. Is that true, and if it is, how? Thanks.

Yes it is true. By the way, every browser has its temporary folder for received informations from the internet. In your case, you must make windows Explorer to show you hidden files first, because temporary files folder is hidden. Navigate to C:\documents and settings\(your account name)\Local Settings and there youll see Temporary folder. Delete everything inside of it. You can also empty the TEMP folder which stores all informations about any software you are using.
