I dont want people reading past searches
Please help Thank you You can clear your Google search history from the Google search box, the Google Toolbar, or your browser. We've included instructions for all three methods below.
CLEARING YOUR GOOGLE SEARCH BOX HISTORY
The search history that displays in the search box on the Google homepage is stored by your browser, not by Google. Instructions appear below for disabling this search history in common browsers. If your browser isn't listed, we suggest consulting its online support center.
Microsoft Internet Explorer
1. Go to the "Tools" menu.
2. Select "Internet Options" and the "Content" tab.
3. Within the "Personal information" area, select "AutoComplete."
4. Click on "Clear Forms." You can also un-check the "Forms" box in this window to keep this information from being stored in the future.
5. Click "OK" to exit.
Alternatively, you can delete individual entries from your search history by using the Down arrow key to highlight a previous search, then pressing the Delete key once.
MSN
If you're using the Microsoft Network (MSN), changes made in Internet Explorer (IE) will take effect in your MSN browser. After making changes in IE, you'll need to sign out of and back into MSN for the changes to take effect.
Mozilla Firefox
1. Go to the "Tools" menu.
2. Select "Options" > "Privacy" > "Saved Form Information."
3. Click "Clear" and un-check the box.
4. Click "OK" to exit.
Safari
1. Go to the "Safari" menu and select "Preferences."
2. From the menus that pop up, select "Autofill."
3. Go to "Other forms" line and select the "Edit" button.
4. From the list of sites for which AutoFill is currently being applied, select "Google.com" > "Remove" > "Done."
CLEARING YOUR GOOGLE TOOLBAR HISTORY
To clear your search history from the drop-down text box on the Google Toolbar:
1. Click on the Google logo on the Toolbar to access the drop-down menu.
2. Select the "Clear Search History" option.
If you'd like to completely disable your Toolbar's search history, please click the "Options" button on your Toolbar and un-check the box next to "Drop-down search history."
If you have Google Toolbar 4.0 installed, you can clear your Toolbar's search history by starting to enter a search term in your Toolbar's search box. When your drop-down search history appears, simply click the "Clear History" link.
Please note that this only clears the search history from the Google Toolbar, which is entirely separate from the search history stored by your browser.
If you've followed these steps and information still appears in your Toolbar search box as you type, please visit http://www.google.com/support/bin/answer... for additional assistance.
CLEARING YOUR BROWSER HISTORY
Like your Google search box history, the search history that displays in the address bar on the Google homepage is stored by your browser, not by Google. Instructions appear below for clearing and/or disabling your search history in common browsers. If your browser isn't listed, we suggest consulting its online support center.
Microsoft Internet Explorer
1. Go to the "Tools" menu.
2. Select "Internet Options" and the "General" tab.
3. Click the "Clear History" button. To completely disable the history function, set "Days to keep pages in history" to zero ("0").
4. Click "OK" to exit.
MSN
If you're using the Microsoft Network (MSN), changes made in Internet Explorer (IE) will take effect in your MSN browser. After making changes in IE, you'll need to sign out of and back into MSN for the changes to take effect.
Mozilla Firefox
1. Go to the "Tools" menu.
2. Select "Options" > "Privacy" > "History."
3. Click on "Clear." To completely disable the history function, set "Remember visited pages for the last X days" to zero ("0").
4. Click "OK" to exit.
Safari
1. Click "History" on the top menu.
2. Click "Clear History" at the bottom of the menu. turn off auto complete in internet options go into internet options under tools and proceed to the history tab. Delete all Cookies and Delete your browsing history. And just to be on the safe side delete your temporary internet files as well. and clear your history And don't search for porn unless is a private computer. just clear your history just type in the letter and put your mouse over it and hit the button on your keyboard that says delete It is not in google its in your PC and each browser has its own way to stop "Autocomplete" feature or disable the "remember what I enter in forms and search bars". Open Internet Explorer, goto tools menu and internet options. Click on the contents tab and click autocomplete and clear autocomplete and passwords by clicking the buttons respectively. First, switch to Mozilla Firefox, it's very easy to delete that info with Firefox. Second, search with Scroogle which uses the Google search engine but is more anonymous. I assume that's why you want to delete your searches. Hi,
This option was created by Microsoft to help users who type same things over and over again, in case if we
don't need it, please follow the procedure below,
Internet Explorer -> tools -> Internet options
Internet options -> Content (tab) ->
In the "Personal Information" Section click on "Auto complete"
Now u can find check boxes for
1. Web Address
2. Forms
3. user name and passwords
please uncheck "Forms" and click on the button "Clear forms"
to delete previous stored forms.
If u don't want the browser to remember your password,
please uncheck "user name and passwords" and also
click on the button "Clear Password" to remove previously saved password.
If u uncheck "web addresses", next time u type an URL,
u have to type the complete URL like www.yahoo.com
if it is checked u can type "Yahoo" and press
ctrl+enter to make the browser complete the rest.
Hope the answer helps u,
Thank u for giving me this opportunity..! |
