no.
They can see that you have been there but will not beable to see the email. Just make sure you log out of your profile and to make sure they dont see your user name, clear the cookies.
Oops I missed the second half of your question.
It would take some good hacking to get that info. Nothing is ever truely deleted from a computer. There would have to be some good data recovery software. Not your weekend warrior stuff

I am sorry to say buddy but dats true.
The person on whose pc if he is a bit tech savvy he can use a keylogger, a program that records every action on the desktop in a file including passwords,sites visited,mails sent so on.
Key loger recods all actions on pc despite cookies,temp files and history is deleted.
So next time better be careful!

I m not much sure but I think I still know it. It will be stored in RAM Rigesters and most probably in Rigestry. U don't need a software of it (I donna think that one comes) but u need to know the code language of the Rigestry. But any mistake in Rigestry will be fatal.

yes, if you leave the browser open they could use the back arrow to get into your internet based email account.
no if you clean the temp folder and cashe and close the browser.
when you leave your email account sign off and close the browser. anytime you do something and security is important like if you go to your bank account online before you log into to your account close your browser and open a new one by clicking on the browser icon (VERY IMPORTANT THIS PREVENTS SOMEONE ELSE FROM HACKING YOUR ACCOUNT)
