Locations...

[Jeremy]

Hi, can someone please provide me with the locations within the registy to the following:

URL address drop-list box

Search Button History

Start > Run drop-list

Also, I would like to create an auto-executable file that deletes the index.dat files at start-up before Windows loads. What is the CODE to remove all these located by Windows and the following:

Internet History File

Temporary Internet Files

Cookies

Windows File Fragments (.CHKs)

Muchly appreciated. I ask because I am sick of having a program running in the background taking up 8 MBs of RAM when I could use a simple home-made text file (autoexec) to remove this stuff at start-up. Thank you in hopeful advance.

Actually, if I were to use a program, I would rather it overwrite the index.dat files instead of "deleting" them because even when "deleted" they can still be recovered. A program like PurgeIE which overwrites with blank entries seems nice. However, those of us with Eraser programs like East-Tec Eraser which overwrites files 5 times more than the DoD Standard (7-Pass Wipe) can overwrite after deletion, so like I said...I would like the code to make an autoexecuting order for Windows to delete all located index.dat files before Windows loads so they are not in use by the system. Once Windows loads, I can overwrite them.
