How Does Window Washer Work?
Many people do not realize that Microsoft Windows, Internet
Explorer, Netscape, NeoPlanet and America Online as well
as many other software products store information about
what they have been doing on their computer systems. This
includes what documents they have used, which pictures they
have viewed, which web sites they have visited, and various
other activities they have been performing. Anyone can simply
turn on your system and see exactly what you have been doing
on your computer. This can infringe on an individual's privacy.
Also, the tracks that are left behind can take up large
quantities of valuable hard drive space. Recovering this
space can be very beneficial by improving the overall speed
and performance of a compute.
Cleaning up the history of your activities can be a tedious
chore of manually removing each history file or entry. If
privacy and disk space are to be maintained, this process
must be performed every time you use your computer. Window
Washer can automatically clean up your browser's cache,
cookies, history, recent document list, and much more!
Window Washer can run in the background and clean up your
tracks when you are done surfing the Internet or any other
time you choose.
