What is a computer cleaner?

When using a computer, different records will accumulate that reveal user activities to and offline. The subsequent side has access to these records of SNOOP at the previous user events and can even be able to obtain personal data. A computer cleaner is a tool that wipes these records with privacy.

The number and type of records generated when using a computer are numerous and diverse that are found in many different places throughout the computer. For example, many software programs have a list of recently open files and documents or recently viewed pictures or movies. Running and finding history is also recorded. Temporary archive copies of documents that could persist months or even years unless they are deleted.

Online activities also leave tracks. The web browser reserves the assigned Memory to the Hard Drive as a cache or a place that can maintain a copy of the recently viewed websites so that this site canLoad the visits faster. The browser cache is an abtentious source of information about previous browsing. This feature may unintentionally reveal the previous search and visited websites, even if the browser cache has been erased. A public computer could "escape" personal information such as name and address if the previous user has filled out the form providing this information.

Snoops cannot read computer cookies because the content is encrypted, but can see which websites have released cookies, unintentionally reveal surf habits to any future body. The computer will take care of the cookies.

Windows Internet Explorer uses a file called index.dat , which stores information about the websites visited and maintains the index of the received cookies. Although the index of the index, which index.dat remains intact. File indextubs. The explorer creates a new "empty" for the next session.

A good computer cleaner will solve all these problems and more and should be easily configurable to optionally maintain some files such as useful cookies. Starting the tool from the USB memory stick or flash drive allows you to clean your public computer or workstations without installing the software.

Although a computer cleaner does a good job to protect privacy at the basic level, it is not a forensic tool. Windows operating systems lock part of the hard disk to be used as a designated page or swap file. This file contains a large number of unorganized (and therefore seemingly chaotic) data that still provide records of use. Easily accessible tools allow each TobSah to be displayed.

You can set the windows or computer cleaner and clear the paging file when you turn off, but this action usually delays the shutdown process a few minutes or more. TheThe closure of a public or work computer may not be practical. They may persist more of the more clarific traces of activities that remain unaffected by a computer cleaner that would probably not find the occasional snoop, but could get them back by coercive organs or administrators.
