886260 2010-05-19 21:50:00 Nothing :lol: Since FF doesnt keep a list of sites Speedy Gonzales (78)
886261 2010-05-19 22:12:00 I dont care what the internet knows about me, they wont get any money out of me because I dont have any.
Any thing else the internet can do by exposing something I have done would only brighten up my otherwise dull and dreary life.

Good point, Speedy. I didn't know that. Every once in a while if I can't load the page with FF I have gone in via IE. Very interesting.

886264 2010-05-19 23:58:00 It does keep a record, but you have to go to tools / options in FF, then change it to custom, then untick the 1st 3 options and I've also ticked clear history. And change the bottom option to nothing. Otherwise it'll show a list of sites you've been to. Even if I didnt do that, running ccleaner would remove them anyway Speedy Gonzales (78)
886265 2010-05-20 03:35:00 Bleh.. Total bollocks. It only got 2 sites right, google and ubuntu forums. I don't use twitter, facebook, piratebay or youtube (thanks to good ol' dialup)

It even said I visited the microsoft site. Not likely, I use Linux.

What a crock. :groan:

886266 2010-05-20 05:32:00 An interesting technique, though I think this has been posted before? Dannz (1668)
886267 2010-05-20 07:34:00 It listed for me the BBC and Google search but not this site and they are about the 3 most visited sites for me along with the Nelson mail which it also didn't pick up on gary67 (56)
886268 2010-05-20 07:41:00 It only checks which of their top 5000 websites you have visited, not your personal most visited websites (although there will be overlaps).
