I have just been reading past posts on this forum about deleting Temp Internet Files. Does deleting them affect your bookmarks?
As you can see, my compter doesn't have much memory, and I thought deleting files I don't need would help.

It doesn't affect your bookmarks. (Of course you will not be able to see anything offline...) I've set the space for TIF to 50 Mbs and delete them from time to time.

Try working through my ME Fixes as it will point out a few things you can remove from memory. This will help a little.
Best thing to do is get and run DELINDEX.BAT as it will remove a lot of junk/temporary files from you disk drive. Your Favorites will not be effected.
