Do you clear yours regularly? Yesterday I was having all sorts of problems getting into sites and then remembered I had not cleared mine for a while. After it was done my problems seemed to go away. It's a great quick fix and definitely solves a few problems.

I clear all data daily (cookies, cache, history, offsite data, etc.) by holding Shift+Ctrl+Delete in my Firefox browser.

no, I was just cleaning it occasionally.

Would running the CCleaner software clear caches from my laptop? I instaleld this software sometime ago and I occasionally run it.

It does as good a job as any for Windows and I run it daily on computers I use for clicking ads, but mostly I use Linux, so BleachBit takes it's place.

I should probably do this but I don't really know how to clear everything. I know how to clear my search history but that is all. How exactly do you clear cookies and all the other things?

[Angie10]

I too clear mine out on a daily basis, and my lappie does run a lot better the more often I do it

@morgoodie....in your history, there's a little tab that says clear history; find that and click it and you're done

[morgoodie]

@Angie10 Thanks just did that. I have done that before but didn't know that was the same thing lol I am so not a technical person.

CCleaner does a good job but i found that superantispyware does a even better job. i occasionally run ccleaner and then i run superantispyware and it finds cookies that ccleaner sometimes miss. i dont like being tracked and i know i am when i go from one page to another and see ads from things i've looked at earlier

When i am finding something then i clear cache when i am using internet banking in cyber cafe or different device.

Clearing cookies won't help this, it's the search engines that link your IP address to the keywords you searched for and sell the service to advertisers.

I run CCleaner periodically, so it clears my browser cache and whatnot. It's not really a huge priority for me, but I do it whenever I think about it. I also clear my cache if I'm having problems getting a site to display properly.

[grecy0905]

I regularly or weekly clear the cache, especially when I am experiencing a slow loading when I am using Humanatic. That is the only way for the load to get fast, by clearing the cache.

It is actually scary how often the fix for a problem is just clearing your browsers cache and/or DNS cache when there is issues with sites loading. I actually have my browsers cache on a RAM disk so it clears and automatically gets recreated everytime I restart my laptop

I also use CCleaner from time to time aswell... probably once a month to clear up other rubbish.

[jampabhai]

yes CCleaner is very good software to use , i also clean once in 15 days.

For a few days, I met a terrible problem that my Internet connection doesn't work well. I had already a plan to contact my Internet Provider for I presume that it is their signal that had caused the no Internet connection. But I was wondering for there are one or two sites that could be accessed and one is the ForumCoin. However, after a minute, it went down again.

I referred the case to my son who is a computer programmer and he told me to empty the Internet cache. I remember that I have installed this handy and workable CCleaner. Wow! There were a lot of rubbish which CCleaner are cleaning. After several minutes, I restart my laptop and everything is in order. For those who have no copy yet or have not installed CCleaner into their computer, feel free to download it here by clicking the image below.

This sounds like a worthwhile tutorial you could write for us dummies, with all the steps laid out.

[tomford]

clear your cookies and history and cache within your browser as normal then use ccleaner. for extra things that ccleaner doesnt find use superantispyware. for a extra step you can clear your windows dns cache. if you clear your dns cache it could help. google it on how it helps.

To clear your DNS cache if you use Windows 7, perform the following steps:
Click Start.
Enter cmd in the Start menu search text box.
Right-click Command Prompt and select Run as Administrator.
Run the following command: ipconfig /flushdns. If the command succeeds,
the system returns the following message: Windows IP configuration successfully flushed the DNS Resolver Cache.

[germainebull]

for extra things that ccleaner doesnt find use superantispyware.

This is an interesting suggestion.

Is superantispyware free to download?

I have no fixed schedule of clearing browser cache but I do it when I see my laptop is responding a bit slowly. It almost instantly comes to its normal speed as soon as I go through the process.
