Default Automatically Deleting Browsing History In IE7


It there a way to get Internet Explorer 7 to automatically delete all
browsing history when the browser is closed, or when shutting down the
computer?

I see there is a setting to 'empty temporary internet files when browser is
closed', but would like it to automatically delete cookies, history, form
data, passwords, etc. too.

Hi,
You will need a third-party program. CCleaner, freeware from
www.ccleaner.com can be configuured to run on startup.

For passwords and form data, you might simply turn off autocomplete.

Hope this helps,

In regards to browser History, go into IE's options and set
"Days to keep pages in history" to "0".
