This program is easy to use, intuitive and lacks the ubiquitous bugs that come with so many freeware/shareware programs. One word of warning though BE CAREFUL in using it unless you know what you are doing. Read the help and instructions first. I ended up unable to log into windows after disregarding the warning messages, because I am too smart to have to read instructions (self satire) or follow prompts. A simple log in using safe mode fixed it and I was back on track.

Not only does it delete the index.dat files but it will also delete the entire Temp-internet-files folder as well. When you go online windows replaces it with a fresh empty one so you can get rid of the content of index.dat and contentIE5 folders in one swipe. I like to run it from DOS before Windows starts each time I boot up for the day. Windows is not a privacy based operating system so Index.dat Suite is just the thing you need! Locate the .exe file to this program in Program Files and send a link to it to C: That way you can easily run it from DOS.

An easy to use app. that is efficient and thorough. Those index.dat files bugged me because (previously) they were difficult to modify without deleting the whole thing. This freeware give you the option of deleting some of the index.dat content. No problems with the install. Stable.

Index.dat Suite cleans your index.dat files on reboot.It works for me with no ill effects.It finds your index.dat files quickly.With this program I can view what's in those files. It's the best program that I have tried (freeware or shareware) for exploring index.dat files and cleaning them. It's free,very informative,and stable. I wish there were help files included.It's a good idea to go to the program's home page and study the description. This program is one that I am going to keep.
