How to Delete History

If you spend much time on the internet, you likely know that your web browser keeps track of your browsing history. This can be both a convenience and a liability. While it may be convenient to have auto-entries such as your name being automatically entered into forms, it can also be a liability such as having your credit card number easily found by prying eyes.

How to Erase History

If you’re wondering, “How do I delete my history?” You’re not alone. Web surfers from around the world are asking the same thing. We’ll show you how to remove history the basic way and we’ll also show you how to remove internet history once and for all.

The basic way to erase history is to use the built in tools your browser provides. In Internet Explorer, go to the Tools menu and choose Internet Options. Choose the General Tab and pick “Clear History” which is found in the Temporary Internet Files section. For newer versions, you’ll first see the Browsing History section and need to choose Delete and then pick Delete History from the list.

That’s the basic way to delete history files. While this will remove internet history from your PC, it will not erase history for good. This is because no matter how often you clean your history, it is still recoverable to anyone with the right tools and access to your PC. This means that spouses, employers, co-workers, law enforcement, family members, friends and even remote users via spyware intrusions can recover your files included deleted history files.

What are the Risks of Running ParetoLogic Privacy Controls?

The only risk of running this powerful history erase tool is that when you delete history, you are losing a little bit of convenience. For example, your address bar stores URLs of websites you’ve visited. When you begin to type in the URL again, it will automatically load meaning less typing and accurate results. This function will no longer be available because the software will delete your address bar entries to protect your confidentiality.
