Trackless from Boutell.com
Boutell logoTrackless will effectively erase your Internet Explorer browsing history. It’s 100% free and runs on many common Windows versions such as 98, XP, NT, 2000 and 2003. The program is not suited for Internet Explorer 7; so if you have this version whether in XP or Vista, you don’t need Trackless at all because the manual deleting of Internet Explorer browsing history will work just fine.

Cachepal from bartdart.com
Bartdart.com logoCachepal is a small application (273kb) for Windows 98, 2000 and XP that lets you erase the web browsing history from Internet Explorer. It can also delete the temporary internet files and cookies in just one click. After installation Cachepal integrates itself inside the Internet Explorer browser program as an icon towards the far right. If you don’t find this icon you would need to manually add it to the toolbar; choose “Customize Command Bar“, then “Add or remove Commands“, select the cachepal icon and “Add” it to the toolbar.

Sandboxie
Sandboxie logoThe Sandboxie program is in a league of its own. It forces programs to run in an isolated space which prevents them from making changes to other programs and data on your computer. You can quickly grasp the benefit of such a process as any attack by viruses (and other malicious programs) through the web or email can be thwarted through Sandboxie.
