Title: Another thing about the Firefox Browser... Post by: BADecker on June 11, 2016, 01:22:54 AM ... and Mozilla clones.
Open and use your Firefox browser. Then under "History" in the top menu, there is a link that says, "Clear recent History." Select "Everything" when you clear your history. You think that you have cleared everything, but have you? Download and set up CCleaner from Piriform at http://www.piriform.com/promo/ccleaner-100314?gclid=CKyC1M3mns0CFQ6LaQodQBECGQ - they have a free version. Then run CCleaner with settings to clear everything that you thought you just cleared off Firefox. You will see that Firefox has retained all kinds of info that you thought you had deleted. At least, that's how it works for me. Does anyone know how to set Firefox so that it really deletes everything like the History says it does? 8) Title: Re: Another thing about the Firefox Browser...

What about using Firefox portable? Title: Re: Another thing about the Firefox Browser... Post by: signup01 on August 18, 2016, 11:34:46 AM I'll use chrome than Firefox instead. Firefox run slowly in my pc (i don't know why). I just run firefox when the site need play a flash player. I think its not only for firefox, it also applied for another browser application. Systems will still recognize your history or chance or cookie, even you already delete it from your browser. So just use third party application like ccleaner.

I start off using it for a purpose having abandoned it a few years ago. within a few days that shit is uninstalled again. I don't know why everyone else can make a browser that's bearable and firefox can't.
when I do use I only use the incognito window but I dunno how much is being retained all the same. |
