CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This simple application displays Internet Explorer and Window traces but lacks printing functionality. Computer History Viewer's simple and utilitarian interface makes for easy operation. The program tracks only Internet Explorer and Windows OS.With the click of an option button, Computer History Viewer instantly shows cookies, cache files, browser history, typed URLs, index.dat files, and the autocomplete memory. The program also displays recently opened documents and previously used application histories. We wish the program provided a method to save or print displayed tracks.
Computer History Viewer is a standalone executable. It doesn't require installation and is small enough to be easily carried on a USB flash drive. Anyone with a need to check traces will find it useful, easy to operate, and informative.
Publisher's description
From Elongsoft Software :Every time you surf the Internet or use other applications on your PC, traces of your activities linger on your hard drive. Computer History Viewer could view Window's run history, open/save history, recent documents, User Assist History, Internet Explorer's cache, cookies, history, visited URLs, typed URLs, autocomplete memory, and index.dat files. Double click the displayed item will directly open the URLs stored on your computer. It also can save the found history as text file.
Version 1.1 saves the found computer history as text file.

Version: Computer History Viewer 1.1
"Simple history viewer with limitations"
Pros: Easy way to view history, cookies, etc.
Cons: It would be nice to be able to resize screen, sort listings, and view other users' history (so I can monitor my kids' usage from my account).

Version: Computer History Viewer 1.1
"VIEWER with a link to BUY another program"
Pros: It easily lets you view various history type files. View ONLY.
Cons: It has no sorting. No built in printing. No full screen view, so if you want print anything you have to copy the whole screen and edit it in another program.
WORST It has a link to $24.95 program called Internet Disk Cleaner whose certificate is not valid, same with the copy on Download.Com. I installed the program, but it appears it is useless unless you PAY, which I DID NOT.
If you want to do any deleting, you will have to find the info shown and do it the manual way or find a more useful program than this one.
