All major browsers have come up with private browsing feature which comes as a relief to all these worries. In these private session browser won’t save any history, cookies, temporary internet files. Features of these are:

  • Websites that collect or share information about you
  • Internet service providers or employers that track the pages you visit
  • Malicious software that tracks your keystrokes in exchange for free smileys
  • Surveillance by secret agents
  • People standing behind you

 

These are called as Incognito window in Google chrome, InPrivate browsing in IE 8, Private browsing in Firefox. To access this feature in Google chrome use the settings section, for IE 8 click on the safety drop down on the toolbar and for Firefox use the Tools section in the tool bar.

So from now on always use these private browsing sessions when you use your bank accounts.
