                              Overview

"PurgeIE Pro" is a software utility program designed to help maintain the
Cache and Cookie files and to remove one's Tracks for Internet
Explorer 7.0, or higher, whether running on Windows XP, VISTA, Win-7
or Win-8.

"PurgeIE Pro" offers several options in its fresh approach to the
cleanup of Internet Explorer files:

First, a distinction is made between Offline Cache and Online Cache.
These can be purged individually.

Online Cache was referred to as Subscription Cache in IE-4.  This
document uses the term Online Cache to refer to "other than Offline"
Cache.

Second, the user has the option to specify a "minimum time since last
use" for purging Offline Cache and for purging Online
Cache.

Third, Internet Explorer's primary INDEX.DAT files are properly
updated without deleting them.  This is done in a manner consistent
with the design of Internet Explorer's Cache system that was
implemented beginning with Version 4.0.  This avoids the requirement
for "rebooting" that other such utility programs require for their
deleting the primary INDEX.DAT files.

Fourth, an option is provided for deleting "Stray" Cache and Cookie
files.  These are files for which the index pointers have been lost
within the INDEX.DAT files.

Fifth, a convenient method is provided for "protecting Cookies" from
its purge function.

Sixth, this utility can also be viewed as a Track Cleaning utility as
it has functions for deleting the user's tracks that Internet Explorer
deposits in various Cache files, the INDEX.DAT files, the History
Folders, the Windows Temporary files and the Registry.

Seventh, a Preview option is provided to enable the user to preview
the effect of each of the Purge options.
