Amythist, as I don't know which browser you use, do a Google search on clear cache and which type of browser you are using or do a search for cache from the Help option in your browser menu. Hopefully you will get a result which shows you what to do.

If you are not sure, post here what browser you use and someone should be able to help you.

I'm going off now but I'm sure someone here will help you if you need it.

I use it regular 

So make sure you know all your log-ins and passwords before you do anything, as clearing your cache could delete any of that sort of info and log you out of things - even if you had clicked on 'remember me' or were 'permanently' logged-in.

Oh yes, good point Fluffy

Amythist, if the Menu bar (File Edit View History Bookmarks Tools Help) is missing from the screen in Firefox, to show the menu bar for a few seconds press F10. To get it back permanently click on the Open Menu icon (the one with 3 horizontal lines at the top right) and select Customize. From the resulting screen click on Show/Hide Toolbars at the bottom towards the left and then click on Menu Bar.

Then follow Dame's instructions as above - the cache option is the one needed to clear the browser cache. If you include the other options to clear then your log ins will be cleared out so you need to know your passwords as Fluffy said.
