Erase My Tracks

[the mask]

hi, when i open my WMP, if i click on file then 'open', a box appears, at the bottom of this box it says 'file name' when i click on this, a drop down box appears with a list of things which i have listened to or viewed even though those files may no longer exist on my h/d. how do i erase all that stuff and even more importantly how do i make sure it isnt stored there in the first place. thank you

If you have windows xp you can use the remove history option in internet explorer, and you could also use Evidence Eliminator

i am using xp, and i did that clear history thing, but still no luck. i will see if i can get hold of eveidence eliminator

i dont really use it anymore but i think the options you're looking for are at 'tools' > 'options' > 'privacy'

you should be able to clear history and set it up so it does'nt save anymore info, uncheck boxes to retrieve media info etc

I use Tracks Eraser Pro often & Evidence Eliminator once a month

Can't be to careful

wow!! that evidence eliminator is mad, stuff was being deleted from there that i had on there weeks ago. i thought once you delete everything from the recycle bin then thats it, but how i was wrong!!!

[hi_what_is_up!]

For deleting files you should check out Eraser.

sure install a program like "easy recovery professional" and see whats really left behind after emptying your recycle bin..kinda scary

Ah...been watching pornos eh? Well, I've had my fair experience and I use Window Washer to clear all my tracks, it clears my media players as well as lots of others.
