Patch to inetcpl and wininet to allow you to delete history, Temp Internet
Files and cookies

I've partially implemented this, but to do it properly will require
implementing {FindFirst,FindNext,Delete}UrlCacheEntry(), which involves
iterators, etc. Yuck. (And they are available only on IE5? Does that mean they
are not available in IE6+ ?)

And (for future reference) here is a link to some old MS documentation, which
includes info about FreeUrlCacheSpace:
