Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This online-privacy tool eliminates system traces and even pop-up ads. AbsoluteShield Internet Eraser Pro lets you hide all browser windows at once with a boss key. It also deletes all tracks from cached Web files, the visited-files history, cookies, typed URLs, index.dat files, saved passwords and usernames, the temporary-files folder, the Recycle Bin, and recently opened documents. Plug-ins eliminate lists of recently used files and playlists created by popular applications such as Kazaa Media Desktop and Windows Media Player. We particularly liked the Profiles feature, which lets you define what to erase and when. The program can automatically delete files on the next Windows start-up if they are currently in use. You can securely erase files so no one can restore them, although the feature could be easier to use. The built-in pop-up blocker works well; its sensitivity adjusts from blocking only invisible pop-ups to killing all new Internet Explorer windows. AbsoluteShield Internet Eraser Pro is a good browser companion for surfing in insecure conditions, such as at work.Publisher's description
From SysShield Consulting :Every time you browse the Internet, your own computer records your activities with programs such as Internet Explorer, AOL, and Netscape. If you're a businessperson who doesn't want colleagues to know what Web sites you've visited, a student who doesn't want fellow students to know which Internet files you've opened, or a home user who wants to keep your history of files, videos, and music private, AbsoluteShield Internet Eraser Pro provides the tools you need. It cleans the browser history, cache, cookies, typed URLs, autocomplete list, saved passwords, and index.dat files. In addition to the traces in your browser, it cleans tracks in Windows and has an integrated and intelligent blocker for ad windows and pop-ups. This tool supports Internet Explorer, MSN, Netscape, Mozilla, FireFox, AOL, and Opera.
Version 3.39 adds support to latest version of Mozilla and FireFox browsers.

Version: AbsoluteShield Internet Eraser Pro 3.39
"Does not erase Mozilla Firefox!"
Pros: Automatic clean up for IE works adequately. Ability to customize good.
Cons: I purchased specifically because it supposedly erased Firefox tracks (my browser of choice). It DOES NOT get rid of Mozilla Firefox tracks even though you can select this as an option. Does not truly get rid of IE tracks. Products like "Recover My Files" will easily find the "erased" IE tracks.
