CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
If you need to cover your virtual tracks by purging unwanted information from your PC, this program does a terrific job. After a speedy installation, Anti Tracks launches automatically to reveal an exceptionally organized interface. You select which files you want to delete from several sections, including ones for Web browsers (IE, Mozilla, Opera), Windows, e-mail, and various applications (such as ICQ or Kazaa). It's also possible to purge any folders of your choice. Paranoiacs will appreciate secure deletions by means of such algorithms as DoD 5220.22-M and Gutmann. What's more, you can design plug-ins for erasing traces left by any application. Besides the program's privacy tools, we were impressed with the features that let you save and launch scheduled tasks over and over again. By all means, Anti Tracks is one of the current best bets for anyone who needs a capable way to protect a PC's privacy.Publisher's description

It supports Internet Explorer, AOL, Netscape, Mozilla, and Opera browsers. It also includes more than 110 free plug-ins that extend erasing features to support popular programs, such as Acrobat Reader, Kazaa, PowerDVD, and iMesh.

Version: Anti Tracks 5.5.4
"Not work for my FireFox browser"
Cons: It doesn't clean the internet history for my FireFox browser, I have to seek another one to clean FireFox. The clean for IE is also incomplete, the IE history can still be viewed after clean.

Version: Anti Tracks 5.5.4
Pros: Good set of features (although I could do without the "IE Protector")
Cons: Not very thorough. It leaves traces of surfing history behind. For complete removal of IE history, I'd recommend PurgeIE Pro.
The best combination would be Ace Utilities & PurgeIE Pro.
The bottom line; you don't really need Anti Tracks.

Version: Anti Tracks 5.5.4
"Secure erase fails, customer support is pathetic"
Pros: This application does nothing that others of its kind do not.
Cons: Secure erase fails on my WinXP install if both IE and Firefox are selected. Plugin wizard has several flaws. The worst problem with this application is the customer support. I emailed them numerous times trying to get the secure clean issues resolved. Average response time on an email was one week. They offered no solution and I eventually gave up. While I registered an earlier version, I have just confirmed the issues still exist on the most recent release. I would recommend going with another product.
