How to Turn Off the MetaCrawler Search History

MetaCrawler is a metasearch engine -- a search engine that displays search results from a variety of search engines including Google, Yahoo! and Bing. When you search for content using the MetaCrawler search engine, it keeps a record of your recent history. This allows you to search for the same content quickly anytime you want. If you prefer to keep your searches hidden, turn off the search history feature.
