Reflection
Why would you want to clear temporary Internet files or Internet browsing history?
 The amount of temporary files and browser history could take up quite a bit of a space on the hard
drive with data from websites that you may never visit again.
 This data could be a privacy concern if the computer is shared because the data can reveal the
websites visited in the past.
