Why you should clear browsing history
As you surf the Internet, your browser stores information about the web sites you visited, information you entered on web sites, what you downloaded etc. Usually browsing history improves your web browsing speed and helps to automatically suggest information you have typed before, so you don't have to type it again, etc. But browsing history can also seriously compromise your security and privacy, as anyone who has access to your computer can see what web sites you visited and what information you entered on web pages.
