I've always used DISK CLEANUP a Windows utility ,after I log off the net ! I've noticed ever since using DELINDEX for the frist time that when I log off and run disk cleanup that the amount of space being cleaned is much more then it ever was pre DELINDEX ? Anyone else notice this and know hy ? Also how often would one run the DELINDEX program ! Iam on the internet 2-3 hours every day ,however I mostly visit the same web sites ,sometimes when shopping for a new item ,I will surf the net pricing and reading reviews pertaining the the item ! Thanks Nick
