Erase All History

Both your browser and Windows keep tracks of your Internet and computer activity in order to provide a more pleasant computer and surfing experience. But these history tracks can compromise your privacy and provide a way for others to view what you have been doing, searching, downloading, running, viewing, etc. You can erase history tracks manually or use special software.
What Internet history left on your PC
Browser History
All information about web sites you visit is stored in the browser history and anyone who has access to your computer can see what web sites you visited.
How to erase browser history
Autocomplete History
AutoComplete is a feature that stores a list of everything you type in web pages (your name, e-mail address, keywords you enter in search engines, etc) and helps the user complete the form by suggesting possible matches. While the AutoComplete feature may be helpful for some things, it can also seriously compromise your security and privacy, because anyone who has access to your computer can see what web sites you visited and what information you entered on web pages. Also various malicous software can use AutoComplete data to steal your personal information such as your name, e-mail address, credit card information and/or retrieve web sites passwords stored as autocomplete data.
How to erase Autocomplete
Search history
AutoComplete stores a list of everything you search while surfing the Internet and helps you complete search boxes by suggesting possible search matches. It can also seriously compromise your privacy, as anyone who has access to your computer can see what you searched on the Internet.
How to erase search history
Toolbar search history
To simplify searching a lot of people install and use search engine toolbars. While using toolbars is very useful and helpful, it can compromise your privacy, as toolbar search history is stored separately from browser history and is not deleted even if you erase browser history and form AutoComplete. So anyone who has access to your computer can see what what you searched using toolbars.

Address bar history/Location bar history (Url autocomplete)
Address bar, also known as the "Location bar", is a text box used to enter a web site address in a browser. Web browsers allow users to click the down arrow to view the recently visited pages. So, the address bar history shows some of the web sites you've recently visited and anyone who has access to your computer and starts to type in the address bar will get a drop down url list with the web sites you've visited.
How to erase address bar history
Browser Cache
Browser cache (also known as Temporary Internet files) stores the content of all the web pages you have visited (including pictures, animation, movies, other downloads, etc) during a session. Browser saves web pages, images from visited web sites into your hard drive whether you click on them or not This speeds up the displaying of pages you frequently visit as a web browser can open them from your hard disk instead of downloading them from the web. But it can seriously compromise your privacy because anyone who can use your PC can tell where you have been on the web.
How to erase cache
Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data which often includes an unique identifier, that is sent to your browser from a web site you visit, stores as a file on your computer, identifies you as a unique user and track your web usage.
However, cookies can threat to your privacy as they can store sensitive information like your name and password on protected login pages, preferences, account information and choices you have made on the site. So, even if you clean browser history, cookies like a map will show your surfing preferences, habits, passwords, etc. Even if the cookies don't contain such information they clearly show that you visited the sites from which they came. Also, in one of their malevolent forms, cookies from one web site might track your visits to a different web site.
How to erase cookies

Even if you erase browse history, cache and cookies, index.dat files will continue to store information about what web sites you have visited and what cookies have been saved.
