you need to do a cleanup

my wife runs our computer since I am an idiot, there is a cleanup icon I can click on and it clears everything up, makes your ram work faster too.

To open Disk Cleanup, click Start, point to All Programs, point to Accessories, point to System Tools, and then click Disk Cleanup.
Hope that helps.

to stop it in the future,
tools>internet options>advanced tab
uncheck "inline auto complete"

Let me guess, you typed in some things that you don't want the wife to see?

Talking another option

is.... to purchase an external hard drive. 40 -100 gigs are cheap
money now.... attach it via your usb connection and copy your
c-drive to the external drive, then rename it F , for F-troop
or something similar and then format your C drive
re -install your operating system -> and everything will run great.

Start/control panel/taskbar and start menu/start menu--classic view/customize/ clear

all gone!


You may also need to open IE click tools/internet options then under temporary internet files , click all three buttons...delete cookies , delete files , delete settings

this will probably mean you'll have to re-enter your username and passwords on sites that have them
