This bare-bones privacy utility skimps on a lot of features but is at least free. aPrivacy doesn't even have an interface to speak of; instead, you access its few functions by right-clicking the system-tray icon. Basically, the program simply erases your Web-surfing activities from Internet Explorer, including temporary files, cookies, and typed URLs. You also can clear a few random areas of your system, such as document and logon history, but the program can't log deleted files. Unlike many other more powerful privacy applications, this one doesn't support alternative browsers, third-party apps, such as IM clients, or Windows' system areas, such as the Recycle Bin. Nor can it shred files or schedule cleaning sessions. Inexperienced IE users who don't know how to manually clean up their browsers are this program's most likely audience.

Do not use products from SoftBulldog

Pros
Cons
Softbulldog products all contain spyware, adware, trojans, viruses and other malicious programs. They also spoof (fabricate) positive reviews. Disregard all positive comments about their products, do not download their products and please write to Cnet informing them that spoofing and providing dangerous products are against Cnet regulations.

Summary
After reading some user opinions, I gave it a shot. After I double clicked the install, I didn't get prompted for a user agreement. It installed, then all of a sudden I see a time synch program and whenusearch bar at bottom. I immediately romoved it and then had to spend the the next 30 minutes of my time completely removing the package, since it flooded my system with such spyware/adware.
