You can set the web browser so it does not save secured web pages and thus prevent access to your private information. This is particularly important if other people use your PC or you are using a PC in a public place, i.e. Internet Café. Please note that disabling the ability of Internet Explorer from saving secured web pages may affect the performance of BSP Internet Banking as each page will need to be downloaded from the server when accessed.
To disable the ability for Internet Explorer to save secured web page data:
- Open an Internet Explorer session
- On the menu bar click on Tools and select Internet Options
- Click on the Advanced tab
- Scroll through the list to the Security section at the bottom
- Check the box next to the option "Do Not Save Encrypted Pages To Disk"
- Click OK to close the window and initiate the changes
Once these steps are performed future web surfing should be safer, but existing web data already saved to your PC must also be erased. To erase the existing data do the following:
- Open an Internet Explorer session.
- On the menu bar click on Tools and select Internet Options
- Under Browsing History, click on the Delete button, Under Temporary Internet Files, select Delete files
- On the message that pops up click YES
- Click Close and then OK to close window
Now any potentially compromising information has been erased from the disk and the ability of Internet Explorer to save encrypted web page information to the PC in the future has been disabled.
