Empty Temporary Internet Files on Exit For IE

[vaibhavtek]

Hi Friends,

Whenever u have a shared pc u always want the other person
to not view what u have done.So,By following this tutorial u
have a setting that whether Internet Explorer should delete
all of the temporary Internet files stored during the surfing
when the browser is closed.

Now here it goes:-

1. Open your registry and find the key:-
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr
entVersion\Internet Settings\Cache]
2. Create a new DWORD value, or modify the existing value
called 'Persistent' using the settings:-
Name: Persistent
Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value)
Value: (0 = empty, 1 = do not empty)
3. Now again go to this key:-
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\C
urrentVersion\Internet Settings\Cache]
4. Create a new DWORD value, or modify the existing value
called 'Persistent' using the settings:-
Name: Persistent
Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value)
Value: (0 = empty, 1 = do not empty)
3. Now again go to this key:-
Exit your registry, and restart ur computer to take effect.

Note:- This only work in IE.

Just Try Yourself..!!

Dude, you can simply get it done from the IE options, why such stupidity?Why dont you simply open the
Internet Options from the tools menu >>> Navigate to the "Advanced" tab>>> Go to the "Security" section and select the "Emply Temp. Int. Files when browser is closed" option?

I got a better way

1)Go to internet options -> advanced tab

2)and just click the check box for "empty temporary internet files folder when browser is closed"

3)Go to content tab , autocomplete settings n deselect web addresses, forms, usernames n password.

4)Go to genral tab -> browing history settings -> set "Days to keep website history" to 0 days
