Disable Google’s Web History…
April 20, 2007
Google has just did a very suspicious thing, but you can get rid of it. It’s called Google Web History. It can record where you are all over the web and it all happens when you have the Google Toolbar installed. There’s a easy fix. Go to http://www.google.com/history ok when you get there and login with your google account, click on keep track of web searches only. Then you go to a page that has your search history. Click clear all search history and it pauses your web search history. It looks like, to me, that you can never resume the collecting of this data and it will never record a search again(well, as YOU anyway).
If your really really paranoid, then what are you doing on the web??
