Hidden Files deletion For MAC
« on: 31 July 2003, 01:33 »
Im new to this and just discovering the evils inside my computer. I run IE on an iBook. Where can I find information on trully deleting my history, cache, attachments and temp files for a mac platform? Are my problems as severe even though im not using a PC or DOS?

ie on a mac? talk about slow. maybe just use a different browser. like safari or mozilla. camino is real fast as well. i do not think the mac version of ie is as bad as it is not tied to the os. i highly suggest using a dif browser.

oh yeah. this should be in the applications section i think. as it pertains to ie on the mac, and not a windows os. or should it go into the mac section?
fuck it, its going in the mac section.

Speaking as a former Mac IE user, switching to a better browser will open up a whole new world for you.

Camino and Mozilla

Safari

Camino is the fastest browser on OS X but Safari is the most pleasurable to use.

Make sure you delete that IE virus along with it's internet cache folder   :D

for me, camino/mozilla takes the title for speed. safari lags behind on some advanced pages.
