Bob Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I'm covering for a guy on a site in Braunston, Leicester at the moment and have been using his computer for a few work related bits (and of course browsing here ) It was running like a dog, so I downloaded RegSeeker (great program, btw) to clean his Registry up a bit. 1252 dead registry links later, I thought I'd clean up his index.dat file as well whiel I was at it. His index file has LOTS of pages from several northern massage parlour sites complete with pictures and movies So I've deleted it all for him, and will be leaving him a helpful hint / message for his return Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Posted February 6, 2007 Author Share Posted February 6, 2007 Once ou've unzipped it to a folder, run the program then go: Histories > IE History Cache Cookies (Index.dat) > Select > Select all > Action > Delete selected and hey presto. Similar kind of thing for cleaning the registry too, it just asks you to confirm the backup before it delets anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geoffvalenti Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 'kin 'ell! You lot like to live dangerously! Whilst regseeker is a good application, you really should have some idea about what you're deleting from the registry before you do it If you fcuk it up, my rates are very reasonable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
