WWW Cache Settings

This dialog will configure the WWW cache settings.

The WinGate 2.1 WWW Proxy provides HTTP caching. HTTP Caching is the process of storing recently accessed graphics, HTML documents or other files from the Internet on the WinGate machine, to allow faster retrieval the next time they are requested from any LAN machine.

The settings you can alter are

‘Limit the cache size to:’

and

‘Purge cache when full’

Limiting the cache is sensible, as it will stop the cache filling up your hard drive. Purging will delete unwanted files when the cache is full. Qbik recommend accepting the defaults.
