1. Why should I use PrivacyAgent?

PrivacyAgent should be used for a few simple reasons. When you use Window's standard browser history clearing and file deletion your histories are not really deleted. Your internet tracks can be recovered with file recovery software, by viewing your internet cookies, cache, index.dat files(secret files used by Windows to store your activities), and more!

PrivacyAgent securely deletes all these files and more to ensure your privacy - your tracks cannot be retraced once eradicated with PrivacyAgent. All files and tracks deleted are gone for good with PrivacyAgent's military strength deletion.
