Sorry, not really related to relationships but I've seen people on this board say how to do it, but I can't find any of the threads!

go to tools (up at the top) and should be an option for 'delete browsing history'

if you have windows 7, you can browse in private and it won't show on your history, which makes me Hmm and Grin in equal measures

I used to delete my browser history by going onto 'Favourites' and then 'History' and just going through and deleting the websites I didn't want anyone to see.

I now use in private, which can be found in 'Safety' - usually on the right-hand side of the screen, near the top.Can guarantee that no browser history can then be seen !

CrapCleaner will delete your entire search history, the history of all websites visited, and your cookies. Use with care...

If privacy is important I'd recommend downloading a portable browser such as Firefox.

You keep it on a USB memory stick and it leaves absolutely no trace on the host computer.
