Privacy Tools For Netscape

In this section I show you how to set the privacy settings in Netscape to increase your online privacy, but for the best browser privacy option, I recommend the free browser from Stealth Browser Pro.  Click here for more information.
Netscape Preferences

Edit > Preference


To get to the privacy settings in Netscape, click on 'Edit' in the toolbar menu, then click on 'Preferences'.
Netscape Cookies

Edit > Preference > Privacy & Security > Cookies

To edit your security settings for cookies, expand the 'Privacy & Security' menu by clicking it on it, then select 'Cookies".
Cookie Privacy Settings

Edit > Preference > Privacy & Security > Cookies

I recommend a privacy setting of 'Medium'.
Form Saving Info

Edit > Preference > Privacy & Security > Forms


Netscape gives you the option of saving information you enter into forms and will automatically fill it into other online forms to help speed up the process of filling out the form.  I recommend you do not check this option.
Passwords

Edit > Preference > Privacy & Security > Passwords


Netscape can remember passwords and will automatically log into websites you surf to.  Obviously you don't want someone to use your computer and have access to sites you are a member of.  Do not check the 'Remember Passwords' box.
Block Popups

Edit > Preference > Privacy & Security > Passwords


You can block popups with Netscape.  I can't think of a single reason why you wouldn't want to.
