Re: Off Topic: Internet history kill software

I have been using disk cleaner for about 3 months and it seems to work very
well one click and it will delete data, cookies, internet files history etc.
and about 6 or so other things that you can select and it is free.  It saves
a lot of time off loading the temp files etc.  I forget where I down loaded
it but do a google search and try it.  Standard disclaimer applies.
