This article describes a feature available in Firefox 3.0, Clear Private Data, which allows you to delete all or part of your saved history.

This feature was updated in Firefox 3.5, and is now called Clear Recent History. In addition to being able to clear all or part of your saved history items, you can specify how much of your history is cleared (e.g. the last hour). To learn about this feature, see Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox.

Firefox uses private data such as user names, history, and cookies, to enhance your experience on the internet.

Sometimes you may not want other users of your computer to see or access this information. You can clear your private data to prevent others from seeing or accessing it. This can be done manually, or you can set up Firefox to clear parts of your private data automatically.



What is private data?

  • Browsing History: contains a log of web locations you have previously visited.
  • Download History: keeps a list of files you've downloaded.
  • Saved Form and Search History: contains a list of phrases you have entered in text fields, such as web searches, and name and address fields.
  • Cache: stores temporary files, such as web pages and other online media, that you have downloaded from the Internet.
  • Cookies: stores files created by web sites, that store information on your computer, such as your preferences when visiting that site. (When a web site has a "remember this" checkbox, they are using a cookie.)
  • Offline Website Data: information web sites have stored on your computer for use without an internet connection.
  • Saved Passwords: contains a list of usernames and passwords you have opted to have Firefox remember.
  • Authenticated Sessions: keeps you logged into secure web sites that you have already used the password manager to log in to.
