Clear history and visited ebay items

I know how to clear the history and delete the temporary internet files. This is supposed to improve performance. One problem is that this also removes any indication on Ebay that I have looked at an item. After looking at an item the color of the link changes. When I clear the history the color returns to it's original color indicating that I have not looked at it. I spend too much time on Ebay as it is. I don't need to review items I am not interested in.

Is there a way to clear the history without affecting the Ebay listing?

Thanks

Well you can delete the temporary internet files. This doesn't affect the color of the links. However, this might actually slow down the performance. Those files are stored in your PC so that it doesn't have to download everything again when you browse a site.

You may want to try defrag, close unnecessary progs, and / or reboot instead to "speed up" performance.
