TIP-Clearing old Java
A pretty simple tip actually. Java is something every computer requires in order to view the various websites correctly as most utilize some form of java script. The problem isn't whether or not you happen to be using the latest version of Java, it is the fact that the Java people have a real problem with the fact that when the provide new updated versions, the software is not written in a way for which the old java is removed and it is quite conceivable for a computer to have three or more older copies of java which will use well over 100 mb of data. This may not seem like a lot with the current size of hard drives, but that number can add up if you have a lot of these, not to mention the good chance that the latest version does not work correctly due to other registry issues from the fact that windows still sees more than one version.
