Hi everybody, Could anyone tell me how to prevent IE to store all the pages and links I've been in (HISTORY). If my IE is open there is always a way to look at the history and find out were I went to and even for my mail wich is confidantial people are able to go into it. Please help me.

Or get TweakUI (has good points also bad points). Just do a search on TweakUI and you will find it. After you install it then open tweak and go to the parnoidia tab. There you can have tweak delete all network logins, web histroy, cookies, etc on restart. So when you finish using the system, reboot and all your tracks will be gone.

A good utility is Window Washer, which cleans all traces of your on-line activities automatically or manually. To make sure no one can recover your deleted files, they also have a wipeinfo feature.
Good luck!
