Cache is a temproray storage which means after you restart or turn off your computer the cache is already cleared...

What you need I think is an upgrade and reformat...

Answer 3

Here's a good program.. http://buttuglysoftware.com/ "CleanCache 3.5"

If your problem doesn't clear up check to see if a program running in the background may be causing the problem. Go to Start>Run and type "msconfig" (no quotes) and click on the startup tab. All of these program run each time your computer starts. If the program is associated with a device that isn't connected or in sleep mode it may slow down the system shutdown because the device isn't responding correctly.

Limiting the number of programs that start each time you boot WILL speed up your system boot, reduce resource use, and clear up your task bar clutter. REMINDER: do not disable your security software....

wellu hav not mentioned which browser u r using so i m giving u d solution of all major browsers:follow the following steps to clear the cache in your browser. Note, the directions vary depending on whether you use the AOL, Internet Explorer, or Netscape browser-----------
AOL:
From the 'My AOL' menu, on the AOL toolbar,
Click 'Preferences', Then Click 'WWW'
Look for the 'Temporary Internet Files'
Click 'Delete Files', then click 'OK'.;
That should clear your cache and give you a fresh start

Internet Explorer:
Up top in the pull-down menus (File, Edit, Tools etc.),
click Tools, then
'Internet Options'
This brings up a dialog with 6 tabs across the top (General, Security,
Content, .......)
Click 'General;, the look for 'Temporary Internet Files'
Click 'Delete Files', then (if it appears, check off 'Delete all offline
content';, then click 'OK'.
Click 'OK' again and this should clear all cached pages.

Netscape:
Up top in the pull-down menus (File, Edit, etc.), click Edit,
then 'Preferences'.
Find 'Advanced'. Click the + sign in front of the word, 'advanced'.
You'll see 'Cache, Proxies, etc.........'
Click 'Cache'
On the right you'll see, buttons labeled 'Clear Memory Cache' and 'Clear
Disk Cache'
First, click 'Clear Memory Cache' when the "?" dialog appears click 'OK'
Then click 'Clear Disk Cache', when the "?" dialog appears, click 'OK'.
Click 'OK' again to close the Cache Dialog box.
This will clear all old info from your browser and the error should be finished.

Answer 5

do a Start-Program-Accessory-System Tools-Disk Cleanup to delete all overhead files.

Then on your IE, click on Tools menu, Internet options, then delete all cookies and files.

Next, defrag your hard drive: Start-Program-Accessory-System Tools-Defrag.

Next delete all programs that you don't need on your computer and defrag again.

You can also download Spybot - Search and Destroy off download.com to find any spywares and clean up your start up items.
