CNET Editors' review
It's flexible and easy to use, and this privacy software rates high in overall performance.
Internet Privacy Eraser comes equipped with a tree-menu style interface that lets you select specific areas for cleaning Windows and browser traces. If you prefer the hands off approach, you'll really like the automatic cleaning feature that lets you choose from among several different intervals, or the options to run at system start or shut down. We liked the extra security of the option to run a test before you commit to removing anything. In a matter of seconds, the program wiped traces from selected areas.
Some programs designed to scan for and remove Windows and browsing files and traces don't permit you to actually clean up what they find. With Internet Privacy Eraser, you're limited to a short 14-day trial period, but it is fully functional, and you can see this program's full potential. If you're not satisfied with Windows' built-in trace cleaners, or just want to automate the process, Internet Privacy Erase is an easy to use, effective program.

Anyone else can see where you have been on the Internet and the images, movies you have viewed, even everything you did on your computer would leave trace on your computer. Using Free Privacy Eraser you can easily protect your privacy and keep your surfing private with a single click.
