Hi George:

The Internet Explorer "cache" is here:

C:\Documents and Settings\YourUserName\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\

You'll find a folder inside TEMPORARY INTERNET FILES
called (something like) CONTENT.IE5, but it may vary
if you've upgraded the IE built into Win2K.

Inside that CONTENT.XXX folder will be several
folders with strange names like "EFKFE169".
It's the items in "EFKFE169" that ADAWARE is seeing.

You should be able to clear this cache from
within Internet Explorer.

Click on 
TOOLS -> INTERNET OPTIONS -> DELETE FILES
Put a check mark next to DELETE ALL OFFLINE CONTENT
and click OK.

If you want to delete COOKIES too,
TOOLS -> INTERNET OPTIONS -> SETTINGS -> VIEW FILES
Highlight and delete any cookies you want to remove.

Later versions of IE have a special DELETE COOKIES 
button.

Jerry
