Here's help; TOR, the onion router; and proxy servers are your friends, never sign-in to an online

account except to do whatever business you need to do and then immediately sign-out and make certain you purge your cache and web browser history both before and after signing in and out. Also, make sure that all cookies and history are deleted both before and after signing-in and out of any accounts. Then reset your IP address and use a different proxy server through TOR. To reset your IP address; open a command prompt and type ipconfig.exe and press enter, then type ipconfig /release and then press enter and finally type in ipconfig /renew and press enter. That will release the current TCP/IP stack and reset the DHCP server.

To delete your internet files on your computer simply move the default location for the “Temporary Internet Files” folder on Microsoft Windows. This will delete the hidden cache files but will not completely destroy/erase them, for that you will need a shredder program that is up to Gutmann and NISPOM (DoD) standards for file erasure.

A low cost alternative is to use Sandboxie with TrueCrypt. Make a Truecrypt file say 10 gigabytes which behaves like an encrypted partition on your hard disk, then direct Sandboxie to sandbox all internet files to the encrypted TrueCrypt partition. That way not only are all internet files erasable through the sandbox they are encrypted also.

Needless to say try to keep as few online accounts as possible; don't go looking for free junk services from Google or Microsoft, etc.
