COMPUTER HISTORY QUESTION

Posted by rainbowbrite on June 18, 2005, at 18:02:51

I posted a site that I could go to ages ago but I couldnt find my post....
but can anyone give me step by step instructions on how to delete history, cookies, AND files (other then the internet options route) I read somewhere here that when we THINK we are deleting we really arent...and the computer savvy can find everything....so I want to clear all my crap out of my system before I let a computer savvy person use it....

Thanks

Howdy, Let's try this first...

-beginning at the 'Windows Desktop'...-
1. select <start> button
2. select <Programs>
3. select <Accessories>
4. select <Disk Cleanup>
5. select <'C' drive>
-with 'Temporary Internet Files' highlighted-
6. select <view files>
7. select <Edit> 'pull-down menu'
8. select <Selectact all>
9. select <Edit> 'pull-down menu'
10. select <Delete> (...cookies)
11. select <File> 'pull-down menu'
12. select <Exit>
-you will return to the 'cleanup' Dialog Box-
13. select <OK>
14. select <yes> (to confirmation question)
-this will return you to the 'Windows Desktop'

This should remove whatever can be easily removed... This should be enough unless the other user has installed stealthy 'snoop' software...

Rod

PS: (just my view of 'things-computer' from 'The Silicon Gulch'...)
