Clearing Your Browser's Cache

TIP:

It is highly recommend that you make sure you have the latest version of your browser installed. Although it's not required by all browsers, restarting your browser after clearing the cache is also a good idea. If you're using Internet Explorer, it's better to restart the computer as well.

• Internet Explorer version 5.x or 6.x:

Select "Tools | Internet Options..." from the main menu
Change to the "General" tab
Click on "Delete Files" button
When the next window pops up, make sure the "Delete all offline content" box is checked and click "OK"

TIP:

Select "Tools | Internet Options" from the main menu, then click the "General" tab. Click the "Settings" button and check the box that reads, "Every visit to this page". Also where it reads, "Amount of disk space to use," make sure it's set to 5 mb or less. Anything more than that is a waste of disk space, especially if you use a high-speed cable or DSL connection.

• Internet Explorer version 7.x:

Select "Tools | Internet Options..." from the main menu
Click delete under Browsing history "Temporary Internet Files"

FireFox

• FireFox:

Tools | Clear Private Data from the main menu
Select " cache"

AOL (AMERICA ONLINE)

• America Online 4.x and up:

Select "My AOL | Preferences" from the main menu
Click on the "WWW" button
Change to the "General" tab
Click on "Delete Files" button

TIP:

If you have Explorer 4.x Active Channel subscriptions, check "Delete all subscription content" to delete cached channel content as well. If you have stored web pages for offline viewing, check "Delete all offline content"

• America Online 3.x (with Explorer 3.x):

Select "Members | Preferences" from the main menu
Click on the "WWW" button
Click on "Advanced..."
Click on "Purge Cache" to clear the cache

TIP:

Be sure to check "Cache web pages and graphics locally" (which should be enabled by default) to speedup surfing.

NETSCAPE

• Communicator 4.x and Netscape 6.x, 7.x:

Select "Edit | Preferences..." from the main menu
Change to the "Advanced | Cache" section
Click on "Clear Memory Cache" and "Clear Disk Cache" buttons to clear memory and disk cache

TIP:

Navigator 3.x and Communicator 4.x users: If you're often having to reload frequently updated pages, you may want to take this chance to set "Verify Documents" option to "Every Time." This will make the browser retreive the latest copy of a web page even if it's in the cache.
