Delete saved pages when browser closed

I find too complex to make that with IEAK. Is there another option without IEAK?.

Excerpts from another related article:

"The first option is to change IE's configuration so that it doesn't save cached pages when you close the browser (i.e., IE clears the contents of the Temporary Internet Files folder at shutdown). To enable this option, choose Internet Options from the View or Tools menu. On the Advanced tab, go to the Security section and select the Delete saved pages when browser closed or Empty Temporary Internet Files folder when browser is closed check box. (These options delete cached pages, but not cookies, from the folder.)

If you need to make this change on several machines and you're willing to reinstall IE, you can use the Internet Explorer Administration Kit (IEAK), the Outlook Deployment Kit (ODK), or Microsoft Office 2000 Setup (essentially a superset of the IEAK and ODK) to establish this option as a default for the browser. However, if you use the IEAK, ODK, or Office 2000 Setup to modify this behavior, you'll need to set an additionaloption: During setup, clear the Disable Roaming Cache option. (This option appears during the setup wizard, within the User Profiles section of the System Policies and Restrictions configuration.) Although this step seems counterintuitive, the Microsoft article "How Not to Save Cached Internet Files with Roaming User Profiles"

http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q185/2/55.asp

assures that it is the appropriate setting.

If reinstalling IE on all your machines doesn't appeal to you, you can use System Policy Editor to implement a system policy file (ntconfig.pol) that includes references to the Registry value that controls this. The IEAK and ODK ship with a policy template file called inetset.adm. This file contains several IE-related policy settings, including one to disable saving cached pages at exit. If you load this .adm policy template file into SPE with your other templates (e.g., winnt.adm, common.adm), you'll have a new Advanced Settings menu whenever you create or edit a user policy. If you select the Delete saved pages when browser closed check box on this menu, which Screen 1 shows, IE will discontinue caching pages in the Temporary Internet Files folder.

If neither option appeals to you, or if you want to prevent more than the Temporary Internet Files folder from roaming, you have a third option. In NT 4.0 Service Pack 4 (SP4) or later, you can use a system policy file to instruct NT to exclude specific directories within the profile when the system saves the profile back to the server. This policy, which Screen 2 shows, is part of the winnt.adm policy template file; you can find it in the Windows NT User Profiles section ofany user policy. To use this policy, select the Exclude directories in roaming profile check box and enter the directories you want to exclude, separated by a semicolon. You must enter the directory string relative to that directory's position from the root of the user's profile folder. For example, Temporary Internet Files is in the profile's root directory, so all you need to enter is Temporary Internet Files. However, if you want to exclude the C:\winnt\profiles\username\application data\microsoft\outlook folder from roaming, you must enter it as Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook (without a leading backslash)."
