how can I delete some of my surfing track -- bucster Well I suppose you want us to guess what "surfing tracks" means, so here's my stab at it: In Internet Explorer go to Tools > Internet Options > General tab and click the Clear History, Delete Cookies and Delete Files buttons. --- Ted Zieglar "Backup is a computer user's best friend." > how can I delete some of my surfing tracks A quick and reliable way is to use the freeware program CCleaner. www.ccleaner.com You will find that it willclear out temporary internet files, history, cookies and a whole lot more. I've used this invaluable application for years now and am very pleased with it.

Return messages posted between. Ah, in Google Groups, I see. I was looking in regular Google; that's got much less control for the date. SignatureAlec S. news/alec->synetech/cjb/net Not to be picky, of course, but 2004 to 2006 does technically count as "years". Oh forget it! :-) --- Ted Zieglar "Backup is a computer user's best friend." > John > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > It is a useful tool! > Not to be picky, of course, but 2004 to 2006 does technically count as "years". Yes, technically. But, there's a connotation to the term. > Oh forget it! :-) Too late. SignatureAlec S. news/alec->synetech/cjb/net Not from my point of view there isn't. The point i was making is that 'i've used it for a long time and can recommend it.'

You said it. > The point i was making is that 'i've used it for a long time and can recommend it.' Exactly. Technically, "years" means two or more so in this case it /technically/ applies. However when people say "for year", they don't usually mean "for two or more years", but rahter "for a long time"/"for many, many years". People don't usually say "for years" when they mean only two, in that case they would say "for a couple of years". You said "for years" to indicate a feeling of a long time, not to mean specifically two or more. SignatureAlec S. news/alec->synetech/cjb/net |
