CLEARING YOUR COMPUTER'S HISTORY

Windows keeps a chronological history on all web pages that are visited. It may be prudent for your safety to delete the record that you have visited this web page. If you choose to do so, it is a simple process (as described below) which will not in any way affect your computer other than to erase the fact that you have visited this and, depending on the version of Windows that you are running, other web pages.

Clearing your computer's history of a web page you visited (most Windows versions):


1. Click the tab marked History in the toolbar of Internet Explorer.
2. Your web pages visited history will appear on the left.
3. Under today's pages, highlight each page name showing (should be last entries) and hit the delete key on your keyboard on each page name highlighted.
4. Exit your Internet browser. This method will only delete the selected pages.


If you have an older Windows version you will have to follow these steps instead:


1. On your Internet browser click on Tools
2. Click Internet Options
3. In the section called Temporary Internet Files, click Delete Files then click OK
4. In the section called History, click Delete History then click OK


NOTE: This method will delete all pages visited since history began.

By doing this you will not harm your computer in any way. However, should your partner click on History, he may realize that you or someone has deleted the history records. If this happens, and you are the only other person using that computer, a good reason to give for your actions (if necessary) would be that you heard or read that by deleting these temporary history files your computer would be faster and waste less disk space, which is true.
 
I'm going to be doing this in a couple of weeks, too, ruffles. BTW...thank you. :kiss:
 
lol

OK, go to Lit, or the rauchiest porn site you can find then click "tool" in the tool bar. Go down to "Internet Options"

A dialogue box will come up, in the top section of the first page click the "Use Current" button.















:D
*muah*
 
Don't forget to right click the toolbar, properties, start menu programs, and clear the documents menu.

Just in case the last few pictures you were looking at were, uh you know, porn.
 
the daily history and the document thang... that was what I needed, thanks all.
 
Uninstall your browser.

Then reinstall it. Or install a browser called Opera. Opera deletes EVERYTHING with one click. Despite telling IE to delete everything, I had old pictures in my cache which were very, um, incriminating.

but I don't wanna delete everyyyyything, only some of the stuff. I look at normal stuff too. *laughing*
 
These are all the ones I know how to do easily on IE:

1. tools-->settings-->view files---> press <ctrl a> to select all files --> delete

2. tools-->settings-->clear history

3. tools-->settings-->delete files-->check "delete all offline content"--ok

4. tools-->content-->autocomplete-->clear forms-->ok

5. tools-->content-->autocomplete-->clear passwords-->ok




You can clear the document menu, as outlined above. (START-->Settings-->Taskbar and Start menu-->advanced tab-->clear)

I've read that there are some additional hidden microsoft files that record internet data, but they will probably not be noticed by the casual user. There also may potentially be some adware somewhere on you computer, especially if you have a lot of "free" add-on components.

Always nice to add some decoy history after you clean things up. The absence of any data is also telling.
