I use Firefox with a few add-ons for better privacy protection. Set everything to be deleted on browser exit, I never have needed history from yesterday and use these add-ons. Adblock Fully Disable all ads. Better Privacy. Deletes LSO Cookies that persist (*flash cookies) and are not deleted when you clear your history and cookies. Script Blocker. Disables all scripts, flash, ect. You can allow scripts by domain. Script Blocker is an acquired taste, you have to enable scripts one by one and for the first week or so it's annoying as you build a whitelist for your most visited sites. The benefit is that it disables all 3rd party javascript libraries from tracking you, Facebook and social buttons, Google Adsense, ect.
