Emptying the Cache
The cache is a small area on your computer that holds on to files, settings, and cookies that are downloaded to your computer when you are on the www. Sometimes these settings, cookies, and files will conflict. Emptying the cache is like cleaning out your refrigerator of items dated prior to the year 2000. Just get in there and do it!
 

If you are using Internet Explorer these are the steps:

1. Go to Tools in the top menu and click on
    Internet Options in the pull down menu.

2. In the middle section, Temporary Internet
    files, Click on all buttons in the order you
    see them. Wait a few seconds after each
    so the files can be deleted. The length of time
    will depend on the last time you performed this
    function.

3. When you click on the last button, Settings,
    you will get another pop up window. Click on
    the middle button, View Files. If you see

    any files delete them!

4. Now you are ready to restart your browser and
    put a box of baking soda in there to keep it
    fresh. (Just kidding about the baking soda
    but I am feeling guilty about my refrigerator. I'd
    better get home and clean it. My kids are
    coming in for a visit and they like to pull the
    condiments off the fridge door and play "Where
    were you and what were you doing when mom
    bought this?")

Netscape Navigator
1. Click on Edit in the top menu and
     Preferences.
2. Click on Advanced - don't be afraid YOU are
    advanced enough to do this!
3. Click on Cache
4. Clear the memory cache and the disk cache.
5. Restart your browser and you are finished.

The directions for emptying the cache works for both browsers the same on MACS as well as PC's.
