How should i delete the files in the internet explorer history folder?

Answer 1

I've found the simplest solution is not to look at naughty sites in the first place.

:¬p

Seriously, the other advice given is all good.

a) To delete all history files, go to Tools > Options > History, and then clear whatever you want to clear.

b) To delete just some, open up your history and right click on individual sites, then delete.

c) To delete just the urls from your address bar (that's the real stinger when prying eyes come along), select the url you want to delete, and the hold SHIFT + DEL. It won't delete it from your history, but it will prevent the url showing up in your address bar again.

Answer 8

The only way to set up the thing to monitor is to buy a program or set up a site blocker in mozilla firefox. And if you do that he probably just wont use firefox and may still find a way to by-pass it. If he figured out how to delete the temporary folder then he's just gona figure out ways to get around what ever security you put up.
