Does anyone have any clue about how to handle the issue of cache for
Internet Explorer ? WinNT stores everything under profile which get copied
back and forth to server creating enormous amont of net trafic and very
slow logins. 

I know how to do it for a single user, but if anybody has an idea for
doing this for a bulk of users, I would be interested.

Thanks.
