Hi Guys

Back a few weeks you were talking about index.dat only being able to be removed 
from within dos.

There has to be some tallented guys out there able to give the following a try 
to confirm my thoughts.

By using the program Spinel Clean and Tidy and afterwards placing the Content 
IE5 folder which contains index.dat (C:\WINDOWS\Tempory Internet Files\Content 
IE5) in the rubbish bin and then restarting, I am able to get index.dat down to 
32kb from thousands kb. This then will be able to be deleted from the rubbish 
bin only after a restart.

The free program  ctinst15.exe  dissapeared but I found it on;

I call this program "Blond Proof" (unless some dos guru uses .bak or something 
like that, I fell for that once) really needs centering with the held down 
mouse curser(free so worth the effort) click on C: > Scan Style > Scan. If 
PCHealth highlighted & deleted it all goes too

Running WinME, Restore and PC health OFF. 

Kindest regards
