hi,
I have Mozilla Firefox and I know how to delete my browser history. The problem is that I haven’t done it in a very long time, so now there’s 80,000 items in my history, and when I try to clear it, Firefox becomes unresponsive and I have to force-quit it. Is there any other way to delete it?

This seems easy enough to do, in the past I always just hit the CTRL + F5 combo on the keyboard.
Till then,

Hi,It’s very normally to erase the history in internet explorer you need to go to TOOLS then internet option make sure your under the general tab and go to the clear history button. You usually have to buy the program to find out what she has deleted.

With Firefox, first go to Tools and hit “clean recent history”, them hit the last line and enter the privacy options. Hit “show cookies” and clean all cookies.

Seems that you can also use that private browsing feature with Google Chrome! Pretty cool to see browsers implementing this feature.

I agree that the private browsing feature in Google chrome is really useful, especially on shared or public computers.
