hi guys,
on windows 7 there is a (delete browsing history) box with the options below that i tick all to be deleted,

* preserve favorites websites data

* Temporary Internet files and website files

* Cookies and website data

* History

* Download history

* Form data

* Passwords

* Tracking Protection, ActiveX Filtering and Do Not Track

in the the (internet option) box there is a option ( delete browsing history on exit) that i have put a tick next to,

Welcome to the forums. But you won't get a sensible answer until you tell us what you are trying to hide!!

If it's gay porn best thing is to just come out about it

Posts: 3,551 If you have all the things ticked it will remove everything except stuff related to whatever is in your favourites. If you want favourite info deleted as well, take the tick out of that one.

Delete History on Exit will delete everything when the browser is closed. I'm pretty sure that it goes by what you have ticked but I'd test that to see exactly what it

hi,
big thanks to the above posts for the answer to my question,

all the best, bluesfloyd.

Not sure what you have done there??? Did you in copy in an old clipboard content instead of clicking on Quote?

Anyway,
use ccleaner from piriform and you're sorted from all angles..

Credit card details? Your browser does not store these... :confused:
