Internet Explorer automatically stores a list of links to pages that you have recently visited in a folder named History. You can access the recent history by clicking the History button on the Internet Explorer toolbar.
You can also customize the way that Internet Explorer stores and uses temporary Internet files. On the General tab of the Internet Options dialog box, click the Settings button. This action opens the Settings dialog box.
Ways to control when Internet Explorer checks for newer versions of the pages that are stored in its local cache. These four options are as follows:
■ Every Visit to the Page This option causes Internet Explorer to connect to the website and check to see whether the page has been updated each time you access the page in Microsoft windows If a newer page is available than the one stored in the local cache, Internet Explorer downloads the new page from the website and places it in cache. If the page has not been updated, Internet Explorer loads the page from the local cache instead. You may also be interested in learning – How to control the cookies in Internet explorer 6
■ Every Time You Start Internet Explorer This option causes Internet Explorer to connect to the website and check to see whether the page has been updated only the first time you access the page in any given Internet Explorer session. Subsequent accesses to the page in the same session are always loaded from the cache.
■ Automatically This option is similar to the Every Time You Start Internet Explorer option, except that Internet Explorer monitors how often pages change. If Internet Explorer determines that a page does not change very often, it checks for updates less frequently than once per session.
■ Never This option causes Internet Explorer to never check for updated versions of the page unless you manually refresh the page. The Settings dialog box also allows you to control the amount of disk space that temporary Internet files can consume on a hard disk and the folder that Internet Explorer uses to store the files. You should consider moving the temporary Internet files to another location only if the drive on which they are currently stored runs low on disk space. To view the contents of the folder, click View Files; to view downloaded program files, click View Objects in Microsoft windows xp.

Internet Explorer automatically stores (or caches) copies of Web pages that you access to a folder on the local hard disk. These copies are called temporary Internet files. The next time you access the same page in Microsoft windows xp, Internet Explorer can load the page from the local cache rather than having to connect to the Web server and download it again. This increases performance and decreases Internet traffic.
However, problems occur when the Temporary Internet pages cache is full. Resolving these browser problems is as simple as deleting the files in the Temporary Internet Files folder in Microsoft windows xp. Unfortunately, recognizing problems caused by a full Temporary Internet Files folder can be difficult. Here are some common warning signs of a full Temporary Internet Files folder:
■ An end user reports that he cannot use the Save Picture As command to save a graphics file to his hard disk as a JPEG or GIF, but the file can be saved as a BMP file. The file name might also appear as Untitled.
■ An end user reports problems viewing History files by date, or no data appears.
■ An end user reports that when he selects Source on the View menu to view the source for a Web page, the source code does not appear as expected.
■ An end user reports that when he visits the Windows Update Product Catalog website, he receives the message Cannot Display Page. (This happens because the user has an earlier version of the site control in his or her browser cache, and the cache is full.)
■ An end user reports that he gets unrecoverable errors (faults) when using Internet Explorer.

A home page is the website that opens automatically when you start Internet Explorer. You can customize the home page in the following ways:
■ Type an address - You can type any URL in the Address box to use that URL as the home page.
■ Use Current - This option sets the home page to the page that Internet Explorer is currently displaying. This option is available only if Internet Explorer is open.
■ Use Default - This option sets the home page to http://www.msn.com. Note, however, that on some computers, the computer manufacturer may have changed the default home page to another URL.
■ Use Blank- This option configures Internet Explorer to not display a home page at all. This is useful if you connect to the slow Internet with a dial-up link and do not want to wait for the home page to download each time you connect.
