Technology Tip:

How to browse websites anonymously!

Whenever you browse on the internet it is recorded in the history of your browser.  Sometimes there is a situation where you do not want others to know which websites you have visited.  You can remain anonymous while surfing websites, this is called private browsing. 

Internet Explorer browser

In Internet Explorer, just open a new tab, you will find this option of Private browsing in the new window. 

InPrivate Browsing, it helps prevent Internet Explorer from storing data about your browsing session.  This includes cookies, temporary Internet files, history, and other data

 
Firefox browser 

In Firefox, you can find the Private browsing option under Tools.  

In a Private Browsing session, Firefox won’t keep any browser history, search history, download history, web form history, cookies, or temporary internet files.  However, files you download and bookmarks you make will be kept.



Google Chrome browser

The Private browsing is also called the incognito Browsing. You can get this option under tools(the little wrench icon). 

Pages you view in this window will not appear in your browser history or search history, and they will not leave other traces, like cookies, on your computer after you close the incognito window.  Any files you download or bookmarks you create will be preserved.


 
Safari browser

For Safari browser users, private browsing option can be found under the tools. 

When you click on the option, it is automatically enabled and an alert will pop up which tells you that you’re browsing will not be recorded in the history of browsing websites
