* Your computer stores temp and Temporary Internet Files
in four different places on your computer. You as a user have
access to only one. So even though you may try to keep your
computer clean, 'junk" accumulates from the minute you
first turn on your machine. If you have had your machine for
more than 2 years, there could be gigabytes of "junk"
accumulated that needs to be cleaned out. We have
the tools to do this.
**Emptying your recycle bin is about the equivalent of having
the garbageman come and pick up your real trash. Sure you
can't see it any more, but it's still out there for someone
to dig through if they want to. We incinerate the contents
of the recycle bin to make sure that data is never recovered.
