Hi all!

Here on my Windows Vista machine I got a little problem.

Ever since I updated Internet Explorer 8 to IE9 Google keeps logged in... I deleted my cookies like 100 times, everytime I close my browser it deletes everything(cookies, passwords, temporary internetfiles, ...) but when I restart IE9 (start page is google) in the upper right corner I can see that I'm logged in...

When I search something, Like I searched "The Blackout" it even remembers the site I clicked on.. (wikipedia)

Does anyone know how to make this stuff go away? it freaks me out...

Thanks in advance!

If you have google toolbar installed it can do as you describe.

go into preferences/settings(right next to your name) & turn off the features you don't want, like history, etc...
