i never do that! I re-install my computer almost once every 6 month... So i don't delete cookies, and temporary files, cause they don't take much space anyway! [abccba]
You should try that every now and then. Thanks for replying. [september_1st]
I also try to this regularly, my laptops becomes faster afterwards :-)) and of course I give you... an enormous hug and many sweet kisses! xxxx [JoeyCa]

I don't delete cookies. But I Programs>Accessories>System Tools>Disk Cleanup once a month. That means, I delete temporary internet files. [edelweiss]
I know that ;) Thanks for replying, take care! [september_1st]
Yes, I do that once in a week but I am not sure that they should keep or not. [HimArticles]
By doing that you free some space and help your computer running faster. Keeping your cookies helps you to acces faster some webpages. [september_1st]
I do when I think about it, which isn't very often. I'm sure I need to do it more than I actually do! [mslena75]
Ok, thanks for replying, take care! [september_1st]

I don't delete cookies or temporary internet files, but I will in the near future. [Artsimba]
You do that, thanks for replying. [september_1st]
I use Mozilla Firefox and I have it set where it asks me when I close out my browser if I want to delete my cookies and temporary internet files before closing. I usually do every time I get off of the internet. [honeybfly83]
Good feature, thanks for replying. [september_1st]
I have Norton System Works. With it, there is a program that does clean up. One can program it to do it upon shut down, but I prefer to do it myself. And I do it every night before I shut down my computer to empty all the junk I have accumulated throughout the day. :) But I don't dump the cookies I have indicated it to always keep. That way, I do not always have to log in...like on myLot! :) [brokentia]
You're right about cookies. As for Temps, i'm using System Mechanic to clean my computer and the program does indeed a good job. Thanks for replying. [september_1st]
At regular intervals. Like everyting else your pc needs maintenance [comp2man]
Indeed it does. Thanks for replying, take care! [september_1st]
s i delete cookies & temp internet files regurarly [nickyhyd]
Ok, thanks for replying. [september_1st]
I do not have a computer to delete "Cookies" or "Temporary Internet Files". But, when I go on my mom's computer...she uses Norton and that cleans up all the junk collected through out the day. And, at the end of the day before I turn off the computer I clean the junk up by doing a fast clean sweep!! That's the way to go! [rsmith512]
Yes, i know about Norton. Thanks for replying, take care! [september_1st]
I frequently do...one times at weeks [internauta]
Ok, thanks for replying. [september_1st]
I do delete those files every few days or so. By keeping them in your computer, it slows your computer down. The more you have in there the slower it will be. [MakDomMom]
I know this, that's why i'm doing my clean-up regularly. Thanks for replying. [september_1st]
Yes I do, every few days or so. [margieanneart]
Ok, thanks for replying. [september_1st]
Nah i dont cuz no one really uses my computer but me so i guess i dont feel i need to and my spy ware does that for me [magdollars23]
You do know that it's one thing to clean up your computer of spyware and another thing to delete your Temps and Cookies. Thanks for replying. [september_1st]
I do when I think about it. [crystal8577]
It's better to keep doing it regularly. Thanks for replying. [september_1st]

Keep doing it frequently depending on your traffic, it's better for your computer. [september_1st]
I dont delete cookies. I delete 'temp. files' whenever i remember. [website1]

yeah i always used to delete cookies and temporary internet files before shutting down the system or giving to the friends. Its because, i used to do many business and m afraid that some of the important information may leak out. [beetel_jack]
As i acess the internet of an organisation ...i never feel to delete the cookies...But friend it is good to do delete the cookies..every seven day,..so that the system remain faster...Also sometimes cookies helps ,If u need a old article...than if u check your cookies than u can find ..which is time saving.. Due to cookies..i had face a problem not acessing of some sites.. So it is good to delete the cookiies.. [pracks]
You reminded me of a good thing, i forgot to delete them, i will delete right now. The cookies and the temporary internet files do not any good to the computer they just load the computers space with no need files. Good luck! [cr1st1nel]

Deleting cookies and temp internet files is the first thing I do before browsing!!! [nihalnihal]
Yes, I use CCleaner so that my internet and PC speed would increase. [cnetboss]

yes almost everytime I turn my computer off [kristi73]
Yes sometimes,more like once every 2 weeks. [foreverblue921]
yeah its better to delete the [hemank]
I did not delete those cookies and i think it doesn't use up a lot of space so that's ok. [adrianngan]
I do that because of cookies the speed of surfing goes slower so I do it.I think everyone should do it. [rohitssj4]
Yes I clean up my computer regularly, I used to have "cookie washer" that does the job automatically but now I prefer to do it manually every time and then. It's a very important security and maintenance task as it also help speeding up your computer. [freesoul]
yes I delete that everyday using my windows washer and it will help me a lot to delete that and ease the capacity of harddisk that why my pc running fast [elleidbaz]
Yes, I clean cookies and temporary files on regular bases, for this purpose I use two software (1) window washer and (2) easy cleaner [birdy866]
Only when something wrong happens with my computer... [nuno_canelas]
yes i also do....mostly after one week..... [bacardiblast_K]
Sometime i delete them. But sometimes i don't its handy to 've them coz it reminds you many things which you had forgotten about like your mailing ids and usernames [devilishogre]
yes i do delete them...because of security reason..and i think it`s good to keep on deleting this stuff [blueberries]
Yes, I delete cookies and temp internet files when I close a browser. If not, the computer is slower. [birthlady]
i also do the same thing. usually it is safe to do this. it should be clear that in this rising age of technology and mind power we should be as safe as possible by taking all the precautionery steps. i wil tell you some more precautionery steps. whenevr u talk to a person on a mobile pone donot say something which u dont want to disclose to others. it is because your voice can be recorted by our friend. if u r giving your address to a website be sure that it is eal and not a forged one.it is because they can take your emailmpassword and can do some illegal works with your email account. [hunnymathur]
I have a temporary file or folder for a few things, my grandson has one for my space I have one for MYLOT. [marciascott]
Yup, I do that once in a while. I'm not sure if it helps much though. [wyykidd]
Well I delete my temporary internet files and history once a day. I also clean out the temp folder (which in XP can be hard to find since it's under documents and settings and you have to be able to view hidden folders). I find cleaning these out on a regular basis helps keep my computer running smoothly. If I don't it bogs down really quick. Cookies I clean out usually when I run the anti-spyware program. It takes care of most of them. [emeraldisle]
Well I dont delete cookies but I do delete Temp files daily. [Rohit1990]
I actually use a program called CrapCleaner to clean out all my temp files, cookies, etc. One click and I am done! [Kate06]
I dont do so as I keep a meagre 50 mb as cache size in firefox and that according to me too less in comparison to the size it should be. Why worry about cleaning that data when it does not turn my system to be faster or better? [anksrivastava]
Yes, it will be deleted automatically once a week. [pdsjkt]
Some times I delete them because my antivirus detects a virus in my Temporary Internet Files. But I usually install my Microsoft XP Professional every 3 to 4 months. My PC works very slow and I need to do that if I want to get some work done on it. [scarfaceboston]
Every day. I use "Crap Cleaner" and you can download this software for free. It does a great job. I also do "Adware" about once every couple of weeks to get rid of those nasty little buggies that some websites set in your computer. [sadgirl_1958]
