Does a computer remember all the sites it's been to even after deleting the history?

Yes it does. For most operating systems, you can run a program called cleanmgr.exe.
If it offers you any checkboxes, check them all and then run it, but read the warning below before you do. The icon for this program is a small disk drive with a broom on it. If you can't find it, look in C:\windows\system32. This is the default location on most operating systems including XP. This may or may not catch all the files however. Again, depending on your OS and particular setup there may be additional folders that house files clearly linked to internet usage. You may have to scour all the folders in your system to find them. These files will often have overly repetitive names that usually reflect a login or user ID as well as other files. In my experience, these files usually appear similar to notepad files. WARNING: Take care in deleting any of these files as well as any of the files cleared by the cleanup utility as this may cause your system to take longer downloading websites and may also delete stored passwords and other settings you've stored along the way.

How do you stop other people viewing the sites you have visited on Google?
You can delete that by deleting history of browser. Browser history contains the sites that you have ever visited.
Can someone view what pictures i have looked at online?
Yes. Everywhere you go online is recorded as history in your computer. You can delete the history when you go off line, but remember that you will not always remember to delete the history. So it's best not to go to the sites you're ashamed of to look at pictures you should not look at! Anyone can look in the history who has access to your computer.
Does deleting Google Chrome history delete all the websites?
It deletes all the sites that you went except the bookmarked ones.
Will erasing browser history delete the records from the internet service providers?
It does not because when I go into private browsing, which doesn't keep my history (almost the same thing as deleting my history), on my schools computer, it tells me that the sites I go to can still be tracked by their Internet Service Provider. Deleting your browser history only deletes it on your local hard drive where your browser resides. Your ISP is totally independent from your machine and what you do there has no effect on what is stored on the drives that your ISP has in their servers. To put it another way - when you delete your browser history, it doesn't change the information on your neighbor's computer - just yours.
How do you delete history on a schools computer if it does not allow me to?
You can't. Just don't visit sites you're not allowed to. I would also avoid using stuff like Facebook and Twitter on them as well, because sometimes schools don't allow deleting of cookies or temporary Internet files as well. (If you logged onto any site, remember to log out.)
What are the last ten sites viewed on your computer?
Although browsers maintain a history, some users turn this feature off (private browsing) or clear their history. If you can't find the last 10 sites here, or don't have access to someone else's history, try looking in the firewall logs instead.
