Well Wizard, it sounds like you are ratcheting up a few notches on the "geek-o-meater". Welcome to the club.
As far a cookies and temporary internet files go...
I prefer to clean things up once in awhile by going to the "tools" "internet options" tabs and deleting history and temporary files which tend to clutter the computer and slow it down.
Also a good idea to defrag your hard drive once in awhile. Kind of like an oil change in the car to keep it running smoothly.
Sorry I missed the Pizza party at your place. I'm sure the girls kept the crowd entertained.
Take care all... may the swimmer's itch flee from your body... may the illegal off-roaders crash in a ditch... and may Mike Castro gain some good Karma and be a good neighbor to all.
