The &quot;InPrivate&quot; session opens in a new window and therefore none of the &quot;InPrivate&quot; info should be passed to the normal session. If concerned still. Set your IE to delete all history upon exit.<br />
Open IE &gt;&nbsp;select tools &gt;&nbsp; select Internet Options &gt;&nbsp;and make the selection on the &quot;General &quot;&nbsp;tab.<br />

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.
