2. In the 'Open' field, type: control inetcpl.cpl, then Hit the ENTER key.
3. Under General, click:

a. 'Delete Cookies', 'OK'.
b. 'Delete Files', 'Delete all offline contents', 'OK'.
c. 'Clear History', 'Yes'.
d. 'Settings', Adjust the amount to 100 MB, 'OK'.

4. Click 'Privacy', 'Default', then 'Apply'.
5. Under Content, click 'AutoComplete', 'Clear Forms', 'Clear Passwords' then 'OK'.
6. Under Connections, do the following: (skip these if you are using DSL)

a. Select the connection in the Dial-up and Virtual Private Network settings.
b. Click 'Settings', uncheck all of the checkboxes, 'OK'.
c. Click 'LAN Settings', uncheck all of the checkboxes, 'OK'.
