The budgie landed on the PC when it flew over, and accidently typed "boobs" with its feet as it landed, stumbled and then landed on the enter button.
whats the easiest way to delete these files the budgie accidently searched for?

Are you wanting to remove them just so that your wife / similar can't see them, or to wipe them in such a way that no-one could ever find them again?!

No, is it Firefox, Opera, Internet explorer. ?
Btw, if it's chrome anytime you view boobies it automatically sends an e-mail to your partner, i hope it's not chrome.

Thats one of the lamest excuses I have heard. However on internet explorer Go to tools delete browsing history. simple as that. If it Opera its Tools delete private data. It is always worth doing this and deleting temporary cookies as well.

The budgie stumbled around on the keyboard as it landed, and fell face first on the return key.
It wasn't me searching for boobs

Nope, the websites you have visited will still be there.
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Index.dat

Right, after much googling i've found a solution, you need to pour a mixture (60/40) of flour and water into your monitor, about 1kg should do, the monitor will probably give out a few sparks, that's what's known as "formatting", it's a part of the process to clear the history, so don't worry.
After that is done put the monitor in the shower, but do not use shower gel, this process is to clean out the 60.40 mix.
After that's all done plug the monitor back in, your missus wont ever find your browsing history again.

it should be adequate if its just a case of making sure the wife and kids don't stumble on it. You can nearly always retrieve files if you are determined about it and have the knowledge.

Here is how you stumble on it... if you have autocomplete turned on, even if you cleared the cache.
If your kid wanted www.bobthebuilder.co.uk it would suggest w w w[dot]boobs...... in the auto complete as soon as you typed w w w.bo

I will bow down to your superior knowledge then, never had a problem myself though, must be luck. Back to the flour and water option then.

download and run Ccleaner, then go to tools at the top of your screen, delete browsing history, all of it from the drop down box.
Next time your budgie is flying free select private browsing from your tool bar.
sorted.

I maybe missing the point here, but I think the best advice is, get rid of the budgie and get a real bird. The human type, this way your keyboard may collect dust rather than bugie crap.
Best of luck.
