How to Delete Your Browsing History from MSN

How to Delete Your Browsing History from MSN thumbnail
Delete your MSN Explorer browsing history through Microsoft Internet Explorer.

Unless you change your default settings, your Web browser automatically stores data about each site you visit. In addition to logging the time and date associated with each viewing, the browser maintains a list of page titles and Web addresses for every page you open. Although all modern Web browsers allow you to remove this information to help protect your privacy, the method required to clear MSN Explorer's history is unique. Because it is so closely integrated with Microsoft Internet Explorer, you must delete your history directly through Internet Explorer instead of MSN Explorer.
