Not much of a worry, even if it is a little "off topic".

A quick search for "content.ie5 on yahoo.com.au came back with these three
links among the first page of twenty links. They tell you a bit about it and
go into more detail than I'll bother with at this time of night when I
haven't had enough to drink!

The third one is probably the easiest to read unless you are into heaps of
nerdspeak.

Hope this helps,

Hi Everyone,
Recently ran a virus scan and noticed how long it took to run through all
these particular files apparently located in the temporary internet files
folder under a folder called content.ie5. Content.ie5 does not show up,
even
with "show all files" chosen. It can only be found and accessed through a
search/find files. It appears to hold content of web files that would
normally be found under temporary internet files, some of these date back
to
2002.
I tried to delete this folder (the content.ie5 one) but it says it's a
system file (or folder).
Anyone have any idea what this folder is for or would deleting it cause a
problem, especially considering it's not visible unless you search for it.
It might be worth adding that it's also located under the temp folder,
same
name, but not as large in size, again only found through a search.
The only reason I knew it was there is I saw the location of it during the
virus scan.
Sorry for off topic and confusing.
Thanks for any advance.
Cheers
Andrew
wondering how many people after reading this are currently going to the
find files or folders and searching for content.ie5
