Default OE6 creating undeletable temp files

On one of me identities I get 17 files that I can't delete.
They are in c:\doc and settings\xxxx\local settings\temporary internet
files.
They look like this--res://C:\Program Files\Outlook
Express\msoeres.dll/tips_Y.gif
There are multible files with the same name.
Any ideas what the res:// stuff is?

res is linking to images within dlls on the system. You can't delete the
images within the dlls.

And if you delete Temporary Internet Files (TIF) via IE Tools Internet
Options General TIF Delete files & accept the option to delete all
offline content (assuming IE6)?

You could avoid them in two ways:

1. when opening OE always open in the Inbox. E.g. check

When starting, go directly to my "Inbox" folder

(Options, General tab; keystrokes: Alt-T,O,W)

and then never go back to the root.

2. Use something other than the default FrontPagePath.
E.g. for minimal additional files needed to render it
substitute about:Blank in the following example:

http://www.pctools.com/guides/registry/detail/874/

(Live Search for
"outlook express" frontpagepath
)


FYI
