These directories are well-know, you can easily locate them and delete it contents. E.g. using environment variables.
Temporary internet files: %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\
History: %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\History

You will need classes System.Environment and System.IO.Directory

Alternatively:


string historyPath = System.Environment.SpecialFolder.History;
string tempInternetPath = System.Environment.SpecialFolder.InternetCache;

Surely, you have to delete your own directories or you have to be an administrator. Also I would expect that the delete will be impossible if an instance of IE is running. Check this. And yet small note: mentioned directories are valid for IE. E.g. Firefox uses other locations.

Just guessing: Content.IE5 is another directory which has not to be empty. Ensure that you have deleted all content of the directory first and than the directory itself.
