Our application is a ASP.NET + Flex running on IIS 6.0 server. On the client machines we run IE8 for display. IE creates temp files that seems to be taking up disk space. The Temporary Internet Folder size continues to grow seems to exceed the limit of 8MB – automatic recycle. When and under what conditions does IE delete files from the temporary folders?
You might want to review the following: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/301057
Also, you should know that the temp internet folder isn’t used by just the browser. It’s actually built into the OS. As such, there are numerous other programs that might be leveraging that code and causing temp files to be stored. This generally causes storage to go beyond whatever you have it set to.
Regarding the 8MB limit.. That’s pretty small… For IE8 up the recommended minimum size is 50MB.
