  1. its simple and does not involve any techie words... if you look towards the top of your brower.. you should see a button like thing called tools. move your mouse on it then click it . then a drop down menu should appear..  move your mouse down til it hits the internet options icon thingy.. click on that.  you will see a small box open up... look for the button that says clear internet history.. then you are set..

    p.s. "cookies" are old files.. you can also delete those, at the same place you can delete your history.. those do not delete any old pictures or files that are saved.. deleting those help your computer run a tad bit faster..  


  2. you go to:

    Tools

    Clear Private Data

    Click Clear private data now

    Sry if its wrong.... its like that on my computer it might be different on you computer

  3. and why would you want to do that...

    haha.

    jk.

    go to the top and you'll see file , edit , favourites , and tools.

    click tools then internet options and clear everything...


  4. In Internet Explorer go to "Tools >> Internet Options" and then click "Delete" in the "Browsing History" bit.

    Now delete the Temporary Internet Files, History and Form data. Now the addresses should be gone.

  5. You'll need to clear your cookies, cache and registry files too. There is a free software you can get at download.com called "CCleaner" It does the trick, and it's good for getting rid of bad bugs too.

  6. Somebodies been looking on p**n..

    Click Crtl + H and just delete stuff.

  7. go to "tools" up in the bar, you'll see it say tools somewhere i promise, I'm not sure which internet browser you are using, but either way, as you are reading this right now just look to the top of the page and you should find the word tools.  Click on that, and it should drop down and have an option to 'delete browsing histroy' then click 'delete all' that's it!! you should be good.  

  8. If it is GOOGLE bar, you can the list button where all your searches will be shown. Under that list you will find an Option that says Erase Historical...or something similar. PRess it and all will be erased.

    If it is not Google bar, it should work similar.

    After you do that, go the Menu of the Internet Explorer and click on TOOLS. After click on Internet Options, and then on Historical. This last option will vary whether you have Windows Vista or XP. Anyways, it iks not complicated and you should be able to identify a "historical" option, and click on it and you will see an option to detele: Cookies, Searches, Passwords, Auto fill ins, cookies, and Temporary Internet sites.... erase them all except the last 2.

    This will leave your computer clean and the websites you visited will be no longer seen.

  9. From internet explorer find the "Tools" pull down menu.  Go there then find "Internet Options" then under "Browsing History" press delete and click "Delete History"


  10. In internet explorer, click Tools (on top menu bar), Internet Options and the Clear History button.  

  11. Press control+H and delete whatever sites you want.
