FAQs:
How can I get pages to load faster?
Clear your browser cache.
When you visit a website, your computer stores tiny pieces of data from the site so that its pages will display faster during return visits. Most computers store such files in a cache file or a folder called "Temporary Internet Files." Occasionally the files can become corrupt or outdated and need to be deleted.
To clear your browser's cache (temporary internet files), follow these steps:
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.x for Windows
- Click Tools in the browser toolbar, then select Internet Options.
- In the Temporary Internet Files section, click Delete Files, then click OK in the Delete Files window.
- Click OK again.
Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.x and 8.x for Windows
- Click Tools in the enhanced browser toolbar and select Internet Options.
- In the Browsing History section, click Delete.
- Click Delete Files in the Temporary Internet Files section of the Delete Browsing History window. Do not click Delete All. The Delete All feature will remove all cookies, passwords, and history from all websites.
- Click Yes in the Delete Files window and click Close.
- Click OK to close the Internet Options window.
Firefox 3.x for Windows or Mac
- Windows users: Click Tools in the browser toolbar, then select Options. Mac OS X users: Click the Firefox menu, then select Preferences.
- Click the Advanced category.
- Click the Network tab.
- Click the Clear Now button under the Cache heading. Click OK or close the window.
