		<description>silki &#187; No problems. I like your blog and I will always generously link to something I like. 

About the 4th tip for faster PC, I consider it more as a debate than a critism.

When you say &quot;memory&quot; it refer to the Random Access Memory (RAM). But I believe you mean the Hard Disk. Yes, if your Hard Disk resource is scarce then surely there is some good point about cleaning up. I still can&#039;t recommend anyone to completely clean up the Internet temp folder because:

1. They spend their time to empty the folder, take more time
2. All the cache is gone, so next surf they will need to re-cache, take more time
3. All the DNS resolution need to be done again, take more time

However, I do recommend people to 
1. &lt;i&gt;clean up&lt;/i&gt; the Internet temp folder if your hard disk is really full and can&#039;t afford any extra MB. In that case you will have to suffer slow Internet surfing to maintain the overall performance. 
2. &lt;i&gt;limit the size&lt;/i&gt; of the temporary files folder to less MB, and 
3. &lt;i&gt;limit the length&lt;/i&gt; of history to less days so that less unnecessary hard disk resource is used.</description>

		<description>Hi Bin,

Thanks a lot for the generous linking to my posts. And also for the constructive criticism of my post. 

Obviously, I take your comments as the positive criticism. Believe me, there are no hard feelings, absolutely no grudge. Option of providing such criticism is the most important factor, which makes blogging unique.

Regarding the issue, it is true that the very purpose of Temporary Internet Files is to keep a copy of the files in cache so as to retrieve them later and speed up the process, but if the memory in your PC is less, and if you continue to pile up these files, for say hundreds of MBs, then a situation may come, when they consume much of your resources, and since many of those pages are very old, and you will not be visiting them often, it is absolutely no use keeping them there.

It is like a trade off, you see. And that&#039;s what I had been referring to.

Anyways, nice to find a true critic.

Thanks again.</description>
