If you feel that Internet Explorer is moving slower and slower with each day, I can't advise you to change your browser, despite the fact this could work for you too. In time, I noticed that most people discover themselves what they denied to be true for a long time, and exactly the same happens with Web browsers.

I am not here to preach in the name of Firefox, Opera, Avant or any other browser out there. All I want to show you now is how to delete temporary data stored by Internet Explorer in a snap, without using any additional software. Are you ready?

- Since you are reading this article now, I suppose you are using a browser already. If that browser is not Internet Explorer, give IE a spin.

- Press Alt+T to show the Tools menu, and select Internet Options here.

- Right in the General tab, click on Delete from the Browsing History section.

- The Delete Browsing History window opens.

- Choose which item you want to delete, confirm your choice and it's all done!

Be sure not to remove your saved passwords if you didn't store them in a safe place, and also be careful not to delete your browser's history items if you didn't add all those interesting sites found in the last month to your Favorites, all right? Good luck!
