<!-- This article was part of test to see if we could increase it’s helpfulness by rewriting it. Since the results were inconclusive for this article we’ve reverted it to the version that was current before the test started. --> {for fx3} This article describes a feature available in Firefox 3.5, Private Browsing, which allows you to browse the Internet without Firefox retaining any data about which sites and pages you have visited: * To use this feature, [[Updating Firefox|update to Firefox 3.5]]. * To find information on clearing browsing history in Firefox 3.0.x, see [[Clearing Private Data]]. {/for} History is used by the browser to enhance your experience on the Internet. When the browser remembers a website you previously visited or the username and password for your favorite web site, this information is considered your history. However, there may be times when you do not want other users of your computer to see or access such information. For example, if a friend or family member shares your computer, you might prefer for them not to be able to see what websites you've visited or what files you've downloaded. Firefox 3.5 and later provide "Private Browsing," which allows you to browse the Internet without Firefox saving any data about which sites and pages you have visited. {note}'''Note''': Private Browsing prevents information from being recorded on your computer. It does not make you anonymous on the Internet.{/note} __TOC__ = What Private Browsing will not retain = * '''Visited pages''': No pages will be added to the list of sites in the History menu, the Library window's History list, or the [[Location bar autocomplete|Awesome Bar]] address list. * '''Form and Search Bar entries''': Nothing you enter into text boxes on web pages or the [[Search bar]] will be saved for [[Form autocomplete]]. * '''Passwords''': No new passwords will be saved. * '''Download List entries''': No files you download will remain in the list in the [[Downloads window]] after you turn off Private Browsing. * '''Cookies''': Cookies are file​s created ​by websites​ that​ store information ​on your​ computer​, such​ as your​ preferences ​when​ visiting​ a certain site​. These will​ not ​be stored. For more information on cookies, see [[Cookies]]. * '''Web cache files''': No temporary Internet files or [[Glossary#cache|cached]] files from web pages will be saved until you turn off Private Browsing. {note} '''Note''': * If you create new [[Bookmarks]] while using Private Browsing, they will not be removed when you stop Private Browsing. * If you save files to your computer while using Private Browsing, those files will not be deleted when you stop Private Browsing. However, any files you open in an external application will be cleared from the system's temporary folder, and none of the files you download will appear in the [[Downloads window]] list. {/note} = Turn on Private Browsing = {for win}[[Video:f85d07fcaa8e5de561dbc3ee7f3e167f-1267329213-339-0]]{/for} To start a Private Browsing session: # Click on the {menu Tools} menu and select {menu Start Private Browsing}. {for win}<br/> <br/> [[Image:c2865a810710523cf0602299e032059d-1267167660-207-1.jpg]]{/for} {for fx3} {note}'''Not there?'''
