Microsoft will introduce InPrivate feature in the next version of Internet Explorer 8 where you can switch off any kind of permanent or long-term storage of your history or activities. It will also automatically clear the browser cache at the end of the session.

Here are the rest of the privacy tools:

  • InPrivate Browsing lets you control whether or not IE saves your browsing history, cookies, and other data
  • Delete Browsing History helps you control your browsing history after you’ve visited websites.
  • InPrivate Blocking informs you about content that is in a position to observe your browsing history, and allows you to block it
  • InPrivate Subscriptions allow you to augment the capability of InPrivate Blocking by subscribing to lists of websites to block or allow.

These privacy features will be added to IE8 Beta 2 which is due end of the month.
