| Disable Browser History for Privacy Reasons SUMMARY: To enhance your privacy, you may wish to disable Mozilla Firefox's website history.
Normally, Mozilla Firefox, by pressing CONTROL-H, will display a list of your most recently visited websites. While many find this great in that they can quickly go back to a recent website if they forgot its URL, many think this feature can violate their privacy. Thus, if you want to disable browser history altogether:
1. Click "Tools" - "Options".
2. When the "Options" dialog box appears, click "Privacy".
3. Click the "History" tab.
4. Next to "Remember visited pages for the last", enter "0" for days.
5. Click the "Clear Browsing History Now" button.
6. Click "OK" to close the dialog box.
