    Yes you do. Go to "Tools", click on "Internet Options" and "Delete all". That should help some. Also run a good anti-virus program often.

    With IE -- click "Tools" -> "Internet Options" -> in General tab click on "Delete browsing history" -> "Delete Temporary Internet Files".

    With Firefox--
    Clear the cache

    1. At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button (Tools menu in Windows XP) and then click Options
    2. Select the Advanced panel.
    3. Click on the Network tab.
    4. In the Cached Web Content section, click Clear Now.
    5. Click OK to close the Options window

    If your running a PC go to Malewarebytes and get their free download it's a anti malware program.
    Also get Spybot search and destroy which is also a free download for removing spyware
    They both will try to sell you a full version but you don't really need it and these are updated all the time. Had a problem with my PC a year or so ago that tech gurus from Makfee couldn't fix. Ran these 2 programs and problem was solved. I try to run both about once a week or so if I use the PC very much. Most of the time though I'm on my IPad.

    If you have a Mac, you turn it off for a few hours and it clears itself.
    I had to pull out my old one. I don't like it because the screen is high. It doesn't like Bill Gates very well. So there are a lot of things I can't do on it as I can with windows. It seems that one of my grandkids loaded my laptop down with things and now it takes about 2 hours to turn on. Everytime I go to a new site, I have to download Java or Adobe reader before I can do anything. I run a virus scan and come up clean. It's 4 to 5 years old which is good for a laptop. A cracked screen, so a repair will run over $500. I'll wait till payday and get a new one. I may find a good deal in the new year day ads.
