Clear Browser History

Did you know that every website you visit is stored in a list called "Browser History"? And that anyone who has access to your computer can simply press a button and see that list?



Private IE makes it easy to protect your privacy and clear all items from this list.

During a web browsing session you simply open Private IE and locate Clear Browser History (on the left hand side of the screen).

Choose one of the following options:

  • All Sites - Choosing this option sets Private IE to delete all sites in your History.

  • All Trusted Sites - In your browser, you can categorize websites based on how much you trust them. If you choose this option, all Browser Security : Medium (Unclassified Sites) and Browser Security : High (Restricted Sites) will be deleted. This option is helpful if you have a site you visit frequently and want to easily access it from the History panel.

  • Restricted Sites Only - Choosing this option sets Private IE to delete all the sites that you have classified as Browser Security : High (Restricted Sites).

Once you have made your choice, press the button labeled Clear Now and your History will be cleared.

Would you like to set this option to Automatic?
