Hello Anna,

"Offline content" are those Web pages which you have designated for viewing
when you aren't connected to the Internet. When you add a new Favorite by
clicking "Favorites \ Add to Favorites..." on the IE menu, you have an
option to "Make available offline". When you use the keyboard shortcut
"Ctrl+D" to add a Favorite, this option isn't available. The same option for
your present Favorites is on the right click menu. By using the
"Synchronize..." option on the Tools menu, you can set it to synchronize
(update) the Web page manually or by a schedule you specify.

The name of a cookie, as well as it's content and purpose, is determined by
the Web site that set it. I have one named "home/" and when I open it (text
file) I find it's for www.bhg.com/home/ (Better Homes & Gardens). Most that
have longer names, to include "www", are easily identified. The purpose of a
cookie is rarely, if ever, associated with it's name. Here is a Webopedia
definition with more information:

Subject: [PCSOFT] IE Question - deleting "off line content"


When setting to delete temporary folders, what is meant by also "deleting
offline content?"  Is this content web pages that you have saved as files?
Or links?  What exactly is "offline content?"

Are the cookies that contain "www" any different from those that don't?
They aren't for identifying site hijacking or anything are they?

Thanks,
Anna Summers
