Control panel
Internet options
Delete history

Don't forget to do google as well!


Well, that's what my mate told me.

Good luck.

In the toolbar search boxes, delete your searches.

In your case, press d then the down arrow on the directional keypad, then press the Del key. Do this from A to Z, to clear all your search terms.

Replace Internet Explorer with Firefox/Opera/Safari/Google Chrome.

So, so much better and nifty tools for getting rid of interesting history.

Can you see anything past the toolbars ?

Actually just add loads more so you only have toolbars and that will block out any dodgy content.

I can recommend CC Cleaner

http://www.ccleaner.com/

Deletes all history index.dat files and any downloaded stuff, even though you may have deleted it.

So i've heard. whistle

So what you trying to hide, have you been on the dodgy porn sites.. She will get very suspicious if you have no history at all, you might also want to get rid of auto insert, thats the one that brings up recent things you have searched for as soon as you start typing.

Give it a few more weeks and you'll end up with this.



To be fair, so many free programs come bundles with an irritating web toolbar, that a lot of people don't untick the option to install them when running.

Danni Minogue naked!!!! I can see why you want to clear that off before giving it to the wife.

If you download Internet Explorer 8 it has an option to open a super secret porn window that doesn't save history! Hoorar.
