What internet browser are you using?

In Firefox, go TOOLS > CLEAR PRIVATE DATA > check everything and then press CLEAR PRIVATE DATA NOW.

In IE, go to TOOLS > Internet Options > clear cookies, clear files, clear internet history.

The above recommendation is not to be used to circumvent parental supervision.

Yes, children are more sophisticated now. I started using Index.dat spy to monitor also.

In IE, you might also have to clear or disable the autocomplete feature.

Tools > internet options > (advanced tab - click on it) > uncheck the one that says enable auto complete

And we do not discuss means for children to pull one over on their parents in these forums. If anything, we will assist parents with establishing supervisory controls.

Be very careful if you choose to respond to this warning, people.
