Hi, I've been trying to find a piece of software that'll set the IE startpage, empty the cache, empty the recycle bin and so on at startup. Does anyone know if there's such a thing? I run a webcafe, and would like to have the computer automate a lot of tasks. Thanks, Scott

possibly " tweakXP " will do similar? A search via google will bring up the sites that offer it.
