Stoffrld Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 I have unchecked the boxes for typed url's and typed info in run.It still removes the info from these items. Haven't figured if I'm doing something wrong,it all seems pretty self explaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted August 17, 2006 Moderators Share Posted August 17, 2006 Welcome to the CCleaner forums Stoffrld. You should remove your email address from plain sight because spammers can exploit it and send you hordes of spam. If you don't want URL's ("browsing history"), cookies, etc., deleted from your browser just uncheck the whole browser in CCleaner, it will be in bold blue text. That "should" have CCleaner leave it alone and not clean it at all. Of course this means you'll have to use the browsers own built-in cleaning utilities to deal with temporary internet files ("cache"), and cookies. If you want to save specific cookies in Internet Explorer do the following: In CCleaner: Click Options->Cookies then use the "->" button to move cookies into the Cookies to keep list. Also see the CCleaner Beginners Guide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
