In today's computer world, privacy is one of the main concerns. That's because the number of hackers that can access your personal and private information is rising more and more and that's why it is vital to have all that information protected. When I am talking about privacy and personal information, I mean web browser cache, cookies and history, auto-complete forms, recently accessed Windows documents and so on. This information, once intercepted by a hacker, can put all your passwords, bank accounts and even your personal life in danger.

That's why it's important to delete this information from time to time, because you don't know when a hacker can get his hands on it. Windows has a disk cleanup feature that pretends to delete all the user's personal information, but actually it fails to work properly. The same thing can be said about the similar feature found in most web browsers.

Using Privacy Sentinel, you can really remove all the personal and private information. This Windows application can scan the system and remove all the temporary data generated by Windows and by most web browsers. The scanning process is very easy to access thanks to the intuitive graphical interface offered by the program. Using a single click, the user can start the scanning process. In the end, one can choose which types of items should be removed from the system, whether it's Windows data or browser data.

After selecting the data that should be removed, one can rest assured, knowing that nobody will be able to intercept his private information. Privacy Sentinel is compatible with most web browsers and even IM applications, like Trillan or Yahoo Messenger.

For protecting the personal information even further, Privacy Sentinel includes a feature which allows scheduling scans to perform at a certain hour or days, completely automatically, without the user's intervention. Besides that, the program can be updated to a newer version directly from its interface.

Pros

It can remove all the user's personal and private data, including recently typed commands, recently opened documents, web browser cache, cookies, passwords and history and so on. Besides that, the user can choose which type of data should be removed. Furthermore, the user can schedule a scan to perform at a certain hour or day.

Cons

The trial version cannot remove all the found personal data. Privacy Sentinel is a useful tool for completely removing all the user's personal and private data from the operating system and web browsers.
