Chas,
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\AdvancedOptions\CRYPTO\CACHE_FLUSH
This key is responsible for that checkbox to appear, and it's correctly set in your system. No idea why that option does not appear.

Ramesh, Here is the reg export , but I don't know how to make the screenshot . Upon closer observation of this problem , it appears that I am no longer creating Temporary Internet files . The folder for them is still present but it is completely empty , both during a browsing session and after the browser is closed . Thanks Chas "Ramesh [MVP]" <ramesh@nojunkmails.com@mvps.org> wrote in message news:u5UpjqVPEHA.2976@TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl... Charles, Can you send me the REG export of: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Advanced Options] And a screenshot of the Advanced tab, by email? -- Ramesh - Microsoft MVP Windows XP Shell http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k What You Should Know About the Sasser Worm and It Variants: http://www.microsoft.com/security/incident/sasser.asp "Charles Swenson" <nospam@nospam.com> wrote in message news:tutqc.120881$Dn1.2722@fe2.texas.rr.com... Ramesh Thanks for your help and patience , I hope yopu don't give up on me before we solve this. Windows is installed on C: The entire Windows installation was done using default locations and settings. I ran the command in the Run box as you suggested , sorry no change. I ran the registry repair for "Advanced " tab is blank. no change. The Microsoft Knowledge base suggestion to reinstall IE , is a little harsh and I would like to avoid it if possible. In the registry under "Hkey_Local_Machine\Software\Microsoft\internet Explorer\Advanced Options\Crypto\Cache_Flush\" there are several values that can be changed , but I'm uncertain which if any of these will cure my problem. Thanks again Chas "Ramesh [MVP]" <ramesh@nojunkmails.com@mvps.org> wrote in message news:u38lQvOPEHA.2924@TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl... The article still applies in your case. OK. Which drive you've installed XP? The REG applies if you have Windows installed into C:\Windows. For any other paths, open the REG file and change C:\\WINDOWS\\System32\\ to the correct path -or- This command should help, anyways: type this command exactly in the RUN box: regsvr32 /n /i inetcpl.cpl -- Ramesh - Microsoft MVP Windows XP Shell http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k --------------------------------------- What You Should Know About the Sasser Worm and It Variants: http://www.microsoft.com/security/incident/sasser.asp --------------------------------------- "Charles Swenson" <nospam@nospam.com> wrote in message news:gJpqc.124660$hR1.41087@fe2.texas.rr.com... Ramesh Thanks for your reply. My Advanced Tab is not blank , only the delete temporary internet files on browser shutdown is missing , everything else is still there. I did do the registry restore for the blank Advanced tab anyway but it did not restore the missing option. I also tried the option to restore default settings. I have set my cache to a lower setting and can manually empty the cache with no problems , it's just much easier to have it done automatically. I have the computer set to do automatic updates and have all the available critical updates. I have XP's firewall enabled , I use AVG antivrus and have it set to update weekly , which it does . I have AdAware Pro and Spybot and run them weekly. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Charles, Internet Explorer "Advanced" Tab is blank: http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k/IEBlank.htm The Advanced Tab Is Blank in Internet Properties: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=273492 -- Ramesh - Microsoft MVP Windows XP Shell http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k --------------------------------------- What You Should Know About the Sasser Worm and It Variants: http://www.microsoft.com/security/incident/sasser.asp --------------------------------------- "Charles Swenson" <nospam@nospam.com> wrote in message news:TK9qc.117645$hR1.25626@fe2.texas.rr.com... Tried this one a few days ago with no resolution , so I'll try to keep the thread alive. I have lost the option to empty the temporary internet files on browser shutdown. I know where it's supposed to be in Internet Options\Advanced Tab\Security Options , but it is no longer there. It used to be and I don't know when or why it is gone . I've always used this option and only found it was missing when I started gradually losing disk space . My AV program recently found the SecThought Trojan on my computer , but it promptly put it in quaratine so I doubt that that had anything to do with this lost option. I suspect this is a simple registry change , but have no idea what to check or change in the registry. Thanx in advance Chas
