X. Introduction
|
|
|
|
This TXT explains how to 'Cover your tracks' on your system.
|
|
|
|
For all you people that are saying, "Who doesn't know how to click 'Cleal History' on IE",
|
|
well some people don't, and they requested that this TXT be writen. So here it is!

|
|
|
|
1. Windows 95 / 98
|
|
a. In windows 9x when you open any document or file (excluding executable files)
|
|
a shortcut is added to the 'Documents' bin. [ Start > Documents ] Their are two ways
|
|
to clear the documents folder. One way is by going to the taskbar properties
|
|
[ Start > Settings > Taskbar & Start Menu... ] selecting the Start Menu Programs tab
|
|
and clicking Clear in the 'Documents Menu' section. The other is with Tweak UI
|
|
(explained in 1b).
|
|
|
|
b. Tweak UI is a program designed by Microsoft to make Windows 95 or 98 more customizable.
|
|
If you have Tweak UI Installed, goto the Control Pannel [ Start > Settings > Control
|
|
Pannel ]and double click the Tweak UI icon. Their are many good options in Tweak UI,
|
|
but I am only goning to talk about the Paranoia option. To get their click the
|
|
Paranoia tab in Tweak UI. In this section you can have the system clear alot
|
|
of different things, or even clear them on system start-up.
|
|
|
|
|
|
***************************
|
|
2. Internet Explorer 5.x
|
|
a. Temporary Internet Files are the files that you download while surfing the internet.
|
|
Such as .gif .jpg .html, Ect. To clear these files open Internet Explorer, select
|
|
Tools from the menu, and click Internet Options. [ Tools > Internet Options ] In
|
|
the General tab and goto Temporary Internet Files. Click the Delete Files button
|
|
to clear your Temporary Internet Files. Or click the Settings button to change
|
|
your T. I. F. Settings.
|
|
|
|
b. The History in Internet Explorer saves all the pages addresses that you visit so you
|
|
can find them at a later date. To clear the history open Internet Explorer, select
|
|
tools from the menu, and click Internet Options. [ Tools > Internet Options ] Select
|
|
the General tab and goto History. From here you can tell I.E. how long to keep the
|
|
history before clearing it (I would set it to 1 Day, so you never have to clear
|
|
history again), or from History you can have I. E. Clear the history, to do so
|
|
click the Clear History button.
|
|
|
|
c. Cookies are basically small .TXT files that web pages save on your computer so they
|
|
know who you are and save misc. setings. To clear your Cookies goto your WINDOWS
|
|
directory ( usually C:\Windows\) and double click the Cookies folder. From here
|
|
you can view or delete the cookies on your computer.
|
|
|
|

*****************************
|
|
3. Netscape 6.0
|
|
a. Just like Internet Explorer, Temporary Internet Files are the files that you download
|
|
while surfing the internet. Such as .gif .jpg .html, Ect. To clear these files open
|
|
Netscape, select Edit from the menu and click Preferences... [ Edit > Preferences ]
|
|
Select the Advanced option and click Cache. To clear the Cache click the
|
|
Clear Disk Cache button.
|
|
|
|
b. Just like Internet Explorer, the history saves all the pages addresses that you visit
|
|
so you can find them at a later date. To clear the history open Netscape, select
|
|
Tasks from the menu, then select Tools, then click History. [ Tasks > Tools > History ]
|
|
From here you can visit, edit, and delete any of the enterys.
|
|
Note: When this document was writen the current release of netscape 6 was beta 1,
|
|
and the delete function In the history manager did not function, I am
|
|
positive they will fix this bug before the final release, thats why I
|
|
included this in the TXT.)
|
|
|
|
c. Just like Internet Explorer Cookies are basically small .TXT files that web pages save
|
|
on your computer so they know who you are, and save misc. settings. To clear your
|
|
Cookies open Netscape, select Edit from the menu, click preferences...
|
|
[ Edit > Preferences ] Select the Advanced option, and click Cookies, then click the
|
|
View Stored Cookies button. From here you can view, edit, or delete any cookies.

|
Note: AOL uses Internet Explorer as its browser, theirfore it shares Cache.

|
you have to clear AOL history. To do this open AOL click My AOL, and select

|
|
From here you can have AOL automatically clear its history, or click the Clear
|
|
