Don’t be Caught up: How to Clear Your Browser Memory

Your internet browser’s cache stores certain information about web pages you visit, so that they’ll load more quickly in the future. This information include browsing history, saved passwords, auto –fill information etc.
It is considered healthy practice to clear your browser’s memory once in a while even on your own devices as most web sites you visit can track you or even steal your information; you’ll be lucky if such is not used against you.
Clearing your browser memory is pretty simple, which is way more important if you are using a public computer like a cyber café.
On your browser simply press “Ctrl+Shift+Delete” simultaneously.
This opens a dialogue box asking you to select what you want to delete.
Check the boxes you want deleted and click “Ok”
Here are instructions with screenshots on how to clear the cache for all major browsers. If you are unsure of what browser version you are currently using, you can visit whatbrowser.org to find out.
It will be safe to set your browser to clear your cache memory on exit.
