"PC fails to keep suspect's Internet Explorer history secret
Iain Thomson, vnunet.com 05 Mar 2007

A US citizen is suing Microsoft for $200,000 after Internet Explorer failed to delete his history of pornography sites.

Michael Alan Crooker bought an HP computer running Windows XP and Internet Explorer from retailer Circuit City, and said that he was assured it would protect his privacy.

But when he was arrested on firearms charges, police cracked the PC's security and found his internet surfing history, along with videos of himself and his girlfriend engaged in sexual acts."

Oh my, worth clicking the link for the last line of the article, lol.
