Would clearing my history, cookies and tempory internet files sort this?

Also what are the consiquencies of doing this? As i remember in the past when i fuked about with the cookies it fuked other things up.

Hope you can help as im a bit of a numpty when it comes to computers lol.

Thanks in advance

You should clean up temp internet files weekly.
Also run Ad-Aware once a week to clear the Spyware cookies tracking running in the background on your PC.
Set the days to keep your History to 1 day in Internet Tools.

Disk cleanup: Start > Programmes > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Cleanup...... This doesn't remove your cookies, so your passwords will be safe.

Doing this simple PC maintenance once a week will speed up your PC considerably.

Do a new System Restore and then remove all previous System Restores.
Do a De-frag.
