okay i have a question for you about computers. Is there a way to delete the history of a computer without deleting the memory? If so, how? and also how do i view the history of what has happened on my computer? If you could let me know that would be fantastic!!

maybe the question with the more entertaining answer would be... what were you doing or looking at that you need to cover your trail????

Just click on the Sundial up top next to Media and the recent web sites list will pop up down the left side.

First paste the whole history here. Maybe your family knows of some good shit we haven't seen yet.

if you want to know WHAT sites your family visited, you must view the history, if you just want to clear it, then do what others said to do above

okay so how do i "view" the history, it will only let me delete it.
and how about the history of everything that has happened on my computer, not just the internet?
