I'm currently using Windows XP Home. When I open a jpg in IE it opens in "Windows Picture and Fax Viewer". While in this window, if I click on the back button (left arrow) it has all the thumbnails from all the websites I have visited in the past. I have cleared out my History & Cookies in IE and even cleaned out the Temp File... yet the thumbnails are still there. Do I have to delete every pic & thumbnail individualy? I can't seem to find a Program or Folder titled "Windows Picture and Fax Viewer" anywhere on my system.

go to the internet options in explorer and disable the storing of cookies, or change the folder that they go to because they should be going to a temporary folder that deletes them after a while

cl Start
cl Search
cl File or Folders
cl Thumb.* (that's Thumb period asterisk)
If a myriad of files show up, and you are sure you do not want them, you can cl Edit, Select All, Delete, or cl on the first one, then Shift-click on the last. All will be highlighted. Right-cl and Delete.
Then clean out your recycle bin.
