Did you even bother looking at Google? Do yourself a favor and try to search for answers before asking people. It helps you in the fact that it makes you a better computer user because you know where and how to look for answers. It helps us because it doesn't waste our time looking for something that could have taken you 30 seconds of effort.

This problem occurs if the Temporary Internet Files are full.

1. Start Internet Explorer
2. On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
3. Click the General tab.
4. Under Temporary Internet files, click Delete Files.
5. When you are prompted to delete all temporary Internet files, click OK.
