Once the install is done, it's safe to delete the 4 files you unzipped from the original .zip file.
Open the Control Panel, and you'll see a new icon labeled "TweakUI."
Double-click to open, and all the options there should be simple to figure out.

the INF file is where you unzipped it to. it should have created another folder with a zipper and double click on it and it should be there.

CCleaner is a great little program (and freeware) for removing history, temp files, and a lot of other unnecessary stuff.

I think you have to Delete internet history, cookies, temp files and saved form data. Delete history information stored in the registry. Recognize that at this point all your PC's standard histories are now erased. Run Spybot, and click Check for Problems. Overwrite the History contained in your target index.

Hi,
You can try ccleaner to delete the browsing history as well as the temporary files of your system.
Thanks
