PLEASE HELP |

|
I was looking at some pictures that were sent from my parents that they took. My computer was using Windows Picture and Fax Viewer, as I clicked the blue arrow to cycle through the pictures some smaller pictures of advertizements, ebay, yahoo etc... and banners and some pictures I have no Idea how they got on my computer were being displayed. I have deleted cookies and all other locations that I know. If I open any email with pictures and cycle through them I get these banners and objectable material. If I right click on the picture it say's they are located in C:\Documents and Settings\myname\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\S1OFSZWN
The problem is I can't find the folder "Local Settings" after "myname". Anyone know how to get these banners/advertisements and smaller pictures of nasty things off my computer? Please help.
Thanks,
Jason |
