Is private browsing really private?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Depends on how private is "really private". For private browsing, cookies and history won't be saved, which means the normal people, the consumers, cannot retrieve the information under private browsing. However, the ISP, or Internet Service Provider, will still have the information. Also, the website you visited have the record that you did access that page too. Thus, if a person really wants to find traces, it is still possible.

What is an address that tells the browser where to locate the page?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

When you type the web address in browser, your computer connects to the DNS server in your ISP provider location, The DNS server in ISP tries to locate the IP address of the web page you requested. If it fails, then the request is forward to another DNS server until the IP address is resolved by one of the DNS server.

Once IP address is located, browser contacts the web server using the IP and request for the resource.

Which browser works best for Windows Vista?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There are several web browsers available, each with their own benefits.

Internet Explorer 7 comes with Windows Vista and is integrated into the operating system, which may translate into having it open quickly. However, it is more susceptible to malware than other browsers and does not follow many web standards and it processes javascript relatively slowly. The next version of Internet Explorer will improve its standards-compatibility, but it still falls far short of competition.

Firefox 3 is another widely-used browser and is generally considered to be the best overall browser. It has a large collection of community-supported plugins as well. The next version of Firefox also drastically improves javascript speed, user-friendliness, and security features.

Safari 3 and Opera 9 are two other options. They both conform very well to web standards and run relatively fast.

Google Chrome is a browser to consider. It is unique in that it separates the processes between tabs to prevent the application from crashing as a result of one website or tab.

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In google chrome you can use 'Incognito mode' that will automatically delete your browsing history when you have finished. In other browsers, you can do this manually by telling the browser to delete history, cache, cookies and site plugin data.

You can tell your browser not to store cookies however this will mean you will be unable to log in to any site.

What are the three ways to move between webpages?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Here's how you navigate between webpages:

If you already know where your going, is to just type in the address that you want to go to. There are buttons on the browser like Back, Forward, Home, Reload, etc. Just under that is a box with some text in it. You can highlight that text and type in the address of the page that you want to go to. Just type it, and press [Enter].

If you're at a page, and you want to go back to the page you were just on before it, press the (Back) button. If you've gone back, and you want to go forwards, press the forward button.

What virus makes your Internet go off?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There is generally not a virus that forces you off the internet. There is however a DDOS or Denial of Service Attack that could be taking place on your internet. If someone with malicious intent has gotten hold of your IP and network port (generally port 80) they can send excessive internet traffic into your router which will knock you offline for a while.
