PurgeIE is a program for removing your surfing
tracks from your
computer. Internet Explorer keeps a lot of information that can
reveal your surfing habits. This includes a history of each site
you have visited in addition to a copy of each of the Webpages.
PurgeIE optionally displays a list of the items it deletes and
provides a 'Preview' function to let you determine the items that
would be deleted by the 'Purge' function.
PurgeIE frees up
wasted space on your HardDrive. PurgeIE
functions without requiring you to restart
your computer.
PurgeIE was
initially released in February, 1999, and has become the utility that newer software products try to imitate. PurgeIE now has
registered users in over 55 countries.

Recent Changes - for PurgeIE, PurgeIE Pro and PurgeFox
VISTA support has been implemented. The new
versions process both the Protected Mode folders and the Normal Mode
folders for Internet Explorer 8.0 running under VISTA.
Users can now designate Cookies to have their data randomized
(jumbled) by the Purge Cookies functions. This should make the
designated Cookies meaningless to their creator.
Users can now change the display Fonts for the primary
Windows. You get to decide how the listings look.
Error messages are now Color coding of in the
"Display Results" listings.
An Install ( backup) CD is now available from Assistance
& Resources for Computing, Inc. The CD contains copies of the
current versions of the downloadable Shareware programs: PurgeIE,
PurgeIE Pro, PurgeFox and
associated utility programs.
This is for existing customers.
This order does not include a license.
The Install CD may be purchased separately for $10.00 + $2.95 S&H via http://www.purgeie.com/cdinfo.htm
Current versions of PurgeIE and PurgeIE Pro
can clear the current day's
History for IE-5 through IE-9 even if the History file is in use by
the other programs or locked by 'Windows Explorer'.
Additional information has been
documented at - http://www.purgeie.com/clearhist.htm
Highlights
A Cookie Viewer
function assists
you in designating which Cookies to protect and helps you manage Cookies.
Cache files (offline and
online), unprotected Cookies, the record of 'Visited URLs',
the History Folders, Strays, and
Recent Links
(Documents) are among the categories you can choose to purge.
PurgeIE can also be
used for clearing Internet Explorer Address Bar history.
This is I.E.'s
Typed
URL Address dropdown list.
PurgeIE clears the
entries inside the 'Index.dat' files.
PurgeIE does
not shrink, delete or remove 'Index.dat' files. These operations could only be done using DOS mode while Windows
is closed. Competing products that remove 'Index.dat' files
require you to reboot (restart) your system to complete a
cleanup.
PurgeIE cleans
the
'Index.dat' files by using approved Microsoft program functions to remove the entries from the
'Index.dat' files. These API functions reset
the URL information to blanks within the 'Index.dat'
files which,
effectively, eliminates the information that is of greatest concern to
privacy advocates.
PurgeIE contains an Emergency function for deleting 'Index.dat'
files should the need arise. This does require a reboot.
This has been documented on a separate Webpage - www.purgeie.com/cachefix.htm
Note - some newspapers and
magazines refer to PurgeIE as "Purge IE".
An explanation for 'Index.dat'
files and the structure for the primary Internet Explorer folders
is available via the following link
[Index.dat Information]
A Tutorial is now
available to assist the new user with the basic operation of PurgeIE.

TUTORIAL
Trial Period
Both PurgeIE and PurgeIE Pro are marketed as Shareware.
This means that you are free to try the programs
prior to
registration. You are allowed to test this software for fifteen (15) days in
its Fully-functional mode. These days need not be contiguous. Once the
Trial Period expires, the program can still execute in Preview mode for
evaluation purposes. In Preview mode no actual deletes are performed. The
program must then be registered to regain its Fully-functional mode.
The non-contiguous evaluation period avoids the scenario in which one downloads a
program, studies it briefly, has to put it aside for other pressing
matters, tries to evaluate it after several weeks and finds that it does
not function after some fixed time. Actually, one could use
the program weekly for 15 weeks before registering it.
Site Licenses or Multiple-use Licenses
for businesses
are also available upon request via the
vendor. An additional 25% discount
is available for Site Licenses for educational institutions, public
libraries and government facilities.

DelinvFile
- 'Delete Invalid Files' is a program that you can use to delete
data files that you have not been able to delete using the normal Windows Delete
function. The current version includes a function for scanning your
harddrive for invalid filenames and too-long filenames.
Windows allows creation of data files and folder names that can not be
deleted or renamed via Windows Explorer.
This creates a need for DelinvFile.
SharePrep is
a utility program for SharePoint administrators
to correct file and folder names
in preparation for importing data into Microsoft's SharePoint.
The file and folder names within SharePoint have more
restrictions than for normal Windows operation.
SharePrep has scan and
