Hi. Have just bought a second-hand PC from someone I
don't know. As you hear so many horror stories about
illegal pornographic images being found on computers when
they are repaired etc, I was wondering if there is any
way of "clearing" any such images that may inadvertently
be on my new machine. If I were to run the system restore
program to restore the PC to its factory settings would
this remove any images that might be lurking somewhere?
Also, if images have been viewed via websites but not
downloaded, are these stored anywhere on the machine and,
if so, would the above restore remove them.
Any advice and assistance would be much appreciated as
I'm not very technical and want to protect myself and my
family. Cheers!
