Most of us think of the Google searches as something private, an exchange between one individual and Google. But if one shares a computer with others, the searches might not be as private as one thinks. Whether one is searching for a surprise birthday gift, a private medical concern, legal advice, or "Researching" some risque topic, there are times when the browser's memory can come back to haunt. By default - in an effort to help the memory - the computer remembers the past Google searches and stores them so one can access them later. There are several ways the computer accomplishes this, and one should be aware of each of them if one wants to cover the tracks completely.
