What does the Internet Cleaner do?
Using the Internet and surfing the web creates an amazing number and variety of temporary files and data objects on your computer. Almost all this data can be deleted safely.Internet Cleaner seeks out and allows you to delete all the temporary or security-compromising data types created on your machine while you are online. At the same time, it provides mechanisms for maintaining the convenience of these Windows® and web mechanisms. For example, you can create a list of trusted sites whose cookies will be ignored in the searches.
Why delete temporary Internet data? There are basically two reasons for deleting all the temporary and redundant data items created on your computer during Internet surfing sessions:
Wasted space Depending on your browser and Windows® Internet Options settings, the temporary files created while you are online can take up a lot of space. Hundreds of megabytes of wasted hard disk capacity are quite common on machines using the default Windows® settings
Compromised privacy All these objects create a data trail as broad as a highway that gives anyone with access to your machine, and many websites, full information on everything you have done and everywhere you have been while you were online. If you don’t like this idea it’s probably high time that you started doing something about it!
