I can tell you right now he's using ie8b2 and if he wants to use suggested sites, he needs to add that dat to the exclude list. if he doesn't want to use suggested sites he needs to turn it off and then CCleaner should be able to delete it. if it still can't delete it after sites is turned off OP needs to safe mode and cclean or use an unlocking program (like unlocker), and then delete it, if it still comes back THAN YOU JUST CAN'T DO IT and add it to the exclude list so it doesn't bother you.
I have the same problem. I upgraded to IE8 about 3 weeks ago and I let this be put on when I installed it. I tried to delete it from IE8 browser. I spent a few days trying to find out what it is, and where the file is, and I can't find it after I deleted it from the browser. I thought about trying to ask MS about it, but seem to go around in circles trying to find answers. How do I go about putting SuggestedSites.dat on the exclude list? I usually use Firefox anyway, but there is 5MB taking scan time.
Can anyone help?
I even had the hardest time trying to get into this forum. I kept getting errors. I even tried other browsers, the Form to send, and finally used another email to get past all the errors that keep coming up.
I wrote by Pluto because I was so happy to finally delete this stupid file which at first I thought it was a virus...It keeps coming back unless you do the above trick!
