Like when you go to START, then SEARCH, then like ALL FILES AND FOLDERS, when I type in the first letter, it pulls up all the things Ive searched for....how do I turn that off? Or at least clear it?

I'm not sure how to disable it, but if you are wanting to clear it, there is a good program that I use. It is called FreshUI. I think you can still get it at www.freshui.com. They have a "paranoid" tab in there and it will allow you to clear any history you want every time the computer shuts down. I hope this helps

answer number 1 does not zero out your index.dat file - you need to do all that - but you need a privacy product to help you - I use Privacy Mantra which is a good product and it is on a donation basis. I use the Karma edition of this product. Doing just what answer number 1 says still leaves a record of everything you do in the index.dat file - which is a file that's always written to. you can use any privacy product you want. thats what I use
