[How to] Automatically Clear Private Data When You Close Your Browser

Web browsers normally save your private data – history, cookies, searches, downloads, and more – and only delete it when you ask. If you are constantly clearing it, you can have any browser automatically clear private data when you close it.
Note that, if you set your browser to automatically clear your cookies when you close it, you will have to log into the websites you use each time you open your browser. Clearing cache files will cause websites to load more slowly after you restart your browser.

Google Chrome

Google Chrome doesn’t include the ability to automatically clear all your private data when you close it. However, you can have Chrome automatically clear cookies on exit or use an extension to have it automatically clear everything.
To get started, open the Settings screen from Chrome’s menu.

[How to] Enable Default Built-in PDF Viewer of Firefox

I never liked the idea of making some file format that requires its own reader for viewing whether it is the Word Doc or the PDF files. PDF files require Adobe PDF reader or any other PDF reader to open the file and can’t be opened without it. While it is not very difficult to install one, I would suggest if you could avoid the installation then why not?
For all those who have Chrome or Firefox browsers installed already on their system then there is perfectly no need to install any PDF reader. Chrome can be used to open a PDF file by default inside the browser and doesn’t require any specific reader for it, on the same lines, Firefox had also (with its new version FF15) released the built in Firefox viewer but it is disabled by default.
Here are some steps that can enable the default built-in Firefox viewer which can be used to open the PDF files. Doing this will also include a context menu “Open with” link on the PDF files so that you can open the files with firefox (thereby curbing the need of any PDF reader).
