Subject: Tech: Stubborn temp files
I sure hope one of you can help me figure this out. I've never had this happen.

I go to My Computer, C drive, Windows, Temporary Internet Files and tell it to Delete All. It says am I sure and I say yes, at which point it will delete all except two files. I have tried deleting them every which way to no avail.

I have also dumped all of my Cookies from the same area.

I have also gone into Internet Options and dumped Temp. Files from there.

The two which will not delete have my name first followed by tribalfusion dot com, and the other is my name followed by smni dot com.

I think I remember the tribal fusion one from a link I fixed here as a joeclone, but I may be wrong. I don't have a clue about the other, but I also have not searched for it online as I don't want the same cookie to embed twice. I understand the "s" is supposed to designate a secure page. I've just had the bank clear up someone trying to charge over four hundred dollars to my debit card, online, so the smni kind of spooks me.

I figure i can go into DOS and get rid of them, but it's been so long since I've done anything in DOS, I don't remember the commands to search or whatever.

So...help? And, thanks!!
