Hi Christine,
I believe the other Barry is going to post a walkthrough for the program
itself, so I'll not duplicate the use of it. However, to download the setup
for C Cleaner do the following.
1. Open your Web Browser.
2. Go to the address bar and type or copy and paste the following
address.
3. http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download
4. Click on Download from Piriform.com.
5. The page will load and you'll most likely hear a low tone. This
means that Internet Explorer has blocked the site from downloading files as
a security safeguard. As this is a legit site it's OK to allow the setup to
download.
6. So you'll want to press alt n, to access the information bar of
Internet Explorer. Once you are in this Information Bar area you can hit
Spacebar to open it's menu..
7. Cursor down to Download File and press return.
8. A File Download Dialog Box will pop up. This is just IE asking you
What you wish to do with this file. Select Save and press return.
NB. You can of course change the location of your downloaded file if you
wish. It will most likely by default land either in you're my Documents or
on your Desktop.
Chris's walkthrough will most likely include an Installation walkthrough if
you're not comfortable with that. If it doesn't shout back and either
myself or one of the others will be happy to do you a step-by-step guide.
Take care,
Barry.

Thanks Barry, I've seen my cookies ok.
Can you tell me if your programme would help me clear history? Better
still, as I don't like downloading programmes, how do I do that manually, I
have done it once or twice, but forgotten totally how to do that now.
Thanks for the help. Christine.

Hi Christine, either you can do it manually as foolows:
click on my computer. go to local drive C. go to documents and settings,
then to the administrator folder, which may be called administrator, or may
be called your name. In there you'll find a folder called cookies. Select
all the files with control a and press delete. You'll get a message from
windows asking you if you want to delete them. Say yes. The only file in
there it won't delete is index.dat.
Alternatively, if you let me have your email address I'll send you the
programme I use to clear my cookies. My email address is
johncoley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Andy, I take it he clears his cookies? If he doesn't over time that will
slow a system to a crawl.

Thanks Barry - this was for a friend, his machine has been running very
slow, as in taking ages to open a web page, or even the control panel, this
is why I thought the virtual memory thing might be the issue; I had him look
there, but although swap file by name wasn't there under
system\advance\performance, vertual memory was, and it had the number 575
against it, telling us we could extend it to a maximum of 776--not sure
about these numbers--anyway, it didn't help, perhaps is machine is
knackered! -

Andy,
You'll need to increase your Virtual Memory. In Control Panel. To set these
values, click System, click Advanced system settings , and then click
Settings under Performance. Typically 1.5 times your installed RAM is the
number most home-users need.
How much RAM do you have int hat machine? It may be an idea to upgrade.
Cheers,
Barry

Hi all - Can somebody give me some pointers regarding the swap file for an
XP machine?
A message pops ups saying something about shortage of virtual space or
memory, and if I recall correctly, this is something to do with the swap
file, but I don't know where to access it, or what to do with it <smile>
Help appreciated -
Andy
