Sometimes you just need to delete those temp files manually

Windoze XP internet performance/browser performance trouble?

If you have checked out your actual internet connection and its ok:

test here: www.speedtest.net

you can try the disk cleanup tool on your system drive (C). Don't select compress files though. If after running it once, you run a second time and you still see a lot of temporary internet files indicated (1,000's of KB). Then select that line in the list and click the view files button. Select all folders/files except for the .dat file. Hold down the shift key and press delete key.

You might also want to do manual delete of the java cached files using the java control panel found in the control panel.

Another good tuneup to do right after this, is to defrag the system drive.

Happy surfing.
