My response b...Garfield, thanks for your comments. My response below...<BR/><BR/>1) That is precisely my point. I was recommending that we reduce the %. Setting the default 10% for a massive 1TB drive, for example, would be insane!<BR/><BR/>2) Again, my point exactly. Just get the size allocation done once and leave it alone.... I also said it is pointless to try and clear the cache.... as you rightly pointed out, the browser will keep the cache at that size.<BR/><BR/>3) You probably wouldn't want to delete some of your cookies in your temp directory. True, they're safe to delete, but that'd mean you have to re-do some of the web settings like iGoogle etc<BR/><BR/>4) was there a point 4? (grin)<BR/><BR/>5) Not quite sure if I understood you. Like me, I've got something like 12,000 work files... you're suggesting I organized it under one folder?<BR/><BR/>You must be a very organized person. And I'm glad for you that you don't need tools.

Trash Can/ Recycle Bin should be reduce until only 100mb is allocated to it. 100mb can keep lots of things, so there is no reason to put until 10%, that is too big.<BR/><BR/>2. actually there is not necessary for using any extra tools, firefox or IE itself have the option for u to clear up the cache files.<BR/><BR/>3. everything in the temp dir is safe to delete, so can delete them without fear. sometimes u might found that some of the files in it unable to be deleted, it is due to that file is still using. then just leave it. u will still able to delete it later on.<BR/>just empty the temp dir as u like as it is safe to do so.<BR/><BR/>5. no tools are actually needed. as long as u organize the files properly with categories, this won't happen. u should advice ppl to organize thier files to office documents in 1 folder, downloaded programs in 1 folder and so on, this will be able to avoid files duplication.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7712555033090395746.post-22960118683489710662008-08-06T08:03:00.000+08:002008-08-06T08:03:00.000+08:00Yeah, had to get back to posting fast -- the 'show...Yeah, had to get back to posting fast -- the 'show' must go on! <BR/><BR/>Most of the reno was focused on the internal stuff which is not visible.

I had my 3D glasses ready when I typed your link but it didn't have the desired effect...<BR/><BR/>Well, I'm not a heavy user, to be honest. I surf, chat, Excel, Word, email, iPhoto and occasionally install stuff downloaded.<BR/><BR/>If I like the stuff, I keep it in the Application folder, if not, just delete. I'm sure some files are left behind, say in the system folders but perhaps not as much as Window apps.<BR/><BR/>My G4 has 80Gig and I'm struggling to even fill half of the space. 1TB is like space frontier to me..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
