Delete Internet Explorer History

I know we have all seen this page before.

You want to delete the Internet Explorer History - so you click on " clear history "

You have covered your tracks - right ?

Unfortunately not. Your history is still on your PC.

It can be retrieved by data recovery software.

This is because of some generally inaccessible files one of which is called the index .dat file which you can see below.

I have worked in I.T for many years now.

When I began there were things I didn't know.

Back then I thought you clear the history - end of story.

Perhaps this is what you are thinking right now.

I remember a chap was accused of viewing certain material on the internet - which he denied.

A senior I.T.Manager gave me the poor chaps drive one day and

asked me to set it up for testing - which I did.

To my amazement he recovered every single page viewed.

As I was new at the time, this manager showed me some software

on his own personal laptop, which prevented data recovery.

He went on to explain that the index file had to be overwritten, not once, but many times.

The software he had would do this.

I bought the same software that evening and have

used it, on a regular basis ever since.

If your laptop were stolen what data could be recovered from your history ?

The modern day laptop thief is armed with

data recovery software - freely available on the web.

It is no longer just the Police or Government Bodies, that have access to forensic software.

From a business perspective, a thief would have access

to your business contacts, competitors and even financial data.

Doctors and Lawyers invariably have confidential and sensitive data

about clients, stored on web pages.

It would not take a thief long to retrieve this data, now they know where to look.

So what is the answer ?

You need to get some privacy software which overwrites any file you chose.

This could be a deleted file form the recycle bin, internet explorer history,

in fact any file you see fit.

I personally use Cyberscrub and have used it for years.

For a tutorial of this software go to my website
