HistoryWasher 1.04

CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

Aside from one major component, this program offers most of the options we like to see in a viable tracks cleaner. HistoryWasher removes the tracks of Internet Explorer, Netscape, Mozilla, and Firefox. Cookies, histories, typed URLs, and caches are immediately deleted, as are the tracks of several third-party plug-ins. Windows' tracks left over from your run and search histories, the Recent Documents list, the Clipboard, and the Recycle Bin are quickly done away with. Furthermore, you can view your Recent Documents list, run and find histories, and cookies and typed URLs for selective deletion with a quick click on the program's intuitive interface. HistoryWasher lets you define specific folders on your PC to be cleaned out, but it doesn't include a file shredder. You can schedule periodic cycles by days, hours, or minutes for the application to perform systematic cleanups. All in all, this utility is still a good pick for online and local tracks cleanup.
