I know how to clear the list of page addresses with the 'tools' and 'internet options', but isn't there another page where stuff is kept on file in a history? How do you find and clear that?

You can clear the history file with a AK47 on full auto. If that does not work try gasoline and a match.

The thought is definatly a nice one, but I'm on the computer at work. I don't think they would appreciate that very much. It would just make my job MUCH harder, not to mention short lived...

It is on the same screen with tools. I use only hold my history for 2 days and then I dump it all. I hate cluttering! You can put the setting at any amount of days you want to hold your history, it works great!

I have a program installed on my computer called CC cleaner it is a very nice and fast software which helps you clean all the temporary files and also your Web browser history and other unimportant files which you definitely want not to take space on your hard disk. It has a free programme and you can compete it online if you want to which makes it very usable and also it is very efficient in doing what it is supposed to do and it does not utilise as a lot of space and memory on your computer.

Well if really dont want to leave any marks wehn browsing, chat, emails or whatever stuff you do with your PC, you can install Deep Freeze. Make sure it is activated when you go online and if you wish to install something, turn it off first

hello ChaJudLeoBit, there are lots of softwares available that will help you do this task.i personally have installed 2-3 programs for this purpose only as i use internet most of the time and visit many websites,mostly pay sites.so they just clog on and makes my pc slow.so i regularly clean my computer using these softwares.one is ccleaner,then another one is tune-up utilities,winaso disk cleaner and windows and internet cleaner pro. from these only ccleaner is a freeware but the rest need the license for full version use.they will not only clean your browser's history but also your hard disk and memory and will speed up your computer.
