Using Security Features in Internet Explorer & Firefox

Hi, I'm Gary for Expert Village let's spend about a minute or two just going over some security options within Firefox. If you click on tools and internet options on the options window click on privacy you'll see a lot of features there, a lot of things within the configuration. We can turn off and on that are very helpful in security and privacy issues within Firefox, we see that we have options in the number of days that are history of web pages viewed. It's capped within Firefox that can be easily changed and we can also turn on and off different features such as our cookies options; when those cookies should be deleted or when they should expire. Because that would help people go into certain websites and have already processed information from when you visited the site. So if other people are using the computer you might want to disable all your cookies from having other people access those cookies or access those web pages with your information. It will definitely be important to go through your options privacy tab and just look through some of the settings there to see how Firefox should be configured so that you're protected especially if your computer is being used by other people.
