Hi, pvc.
I'm not sure if those TIF files can be deleted while IE is running. TIF
files don't behave like "normal" files and are best handled by IE's Tools |
Internet Options. On the first (General) page, under Browsing history,
there are buttons to Delete or to change the TIF files.
In Tools | Internet Options | Advanced, under Security (the last category),
you can check the box to "Empty Temporary Internet Files folder when browser
is closed". Does this accomplish what you are trying to do?
