Answer 3

When you browse the Internet all your Internet tracks are recorded on your computer. All your Internet activities, like the places you have visited, are logged into index.dat files and can be read by anyone. Probably you can't find index.dat file because it is hidden by default. Even if you try to delete cache and cookies manually they are still existing in the index.dat file. So there is a new goal- to clean the index.dat file, where all the information is remaining.
You can clean all this with one single software:
PC Mesh Internet Cleanup
www.pcmesh.com
I have been using their software for several years and have been very satisfied with them. You can try it for free before you buy.

Answer 5

Cookies are typically sent to you whenever you access a website. If you want to get rid of the cookies and temporary files, go to start, control panel, and internet options, where you'll find where to clear them. Be forewarned that it may slow your computer down to do this temporarily.
