Why you should clear browser 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, browser history is helpful to store this information as it can improve your web browsing speed, helps to automatically suggest information you have typed before, so you don't have to type it again, etc. But it 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.
