My browsing slows to a crawl...
within a couple of hours if I don't either clean these files, or set security settings that block them in the first place.
The problem is, that web-sites place misbehaving files in both places that cause a lot of chatter in the system and network. Adobe flash cookies are particularly nasty; CCleaner will make short shrift of them!
Besides, I find a LOT of malware sitting dormant in temp files on standard accounts. There is no reason in the world to leave these kind of files in there, when they could come out of hiding and attempt to takeover an admin session or other form of attack vector.
Better yet, I use AdAware; despite the fact that it is a RAM hog - we got plenty of RAM these days - it insures that browsing speeds are up to snuff! I am not a spammer for Lavasoft; I just use what works! I ONLY use the free version - I'm not ready to trust their anti-virus on the paid version. I have seen some pretty good performance using it as a backup scanner for viruses though.
A good host file like AdBlock Plus for FireFox or MVPS for windows, goes a LONG way to speeding up browsing performance. We don't need no stinking ad/bad servers!
