Hi there, I'm a new member of the group and this is my first message. Thanks for creating this group. I'm using a Windows-based PC (Vista Home Edition Premium) with Internet Explorer 8.
I've tried everything I know to get craigslist off my browser history, but it keeps coming back. Here's what I did yesterday: 1. I ran a complete virus scan using Norton and deleted the cookies; 2. I deleted the browsing history, cookies, and temporary internet files by going through the sequence (from the IE browser window) -- Tools -- Internet Options -- Under browsing history, clicked the [Delete] box underneath where it says "Delete temporary files, history, cookies, saved passwords, and web form information." 3. I then went to the control panel and deleted everything again, i.e., -- Start -- Control Panel -- Use tools to enhance performance -- Open disk cleanup -- Files from all users on this computer -- Checked OK for the option [OS (C;)] -- Checked OK for disk cleanup for tabbed areas 4. I also went to the Safety tab (adjacent to the Tools tab on IE 8) and clicked on Delete Browsing History as well. After doing all these things, I rebooted my computer and the craigslist visits still show up in the history area of my browser bar. You have to click on the downward pointing arrow a few times, but it's there. Do I have to identify the specific cookies craigslist has put on my computer and delete them manually to do what I want to do? If so, how do you identify the craigslist-specific cookies to delete? Can someone walk me through what I'm doing wrong, or what I'm not doing that I should be doing, so i can solve this problem? Thanks a bunch.
