    hand me down computer web pages uses previous owner's email
    « on: January 17, 2011, 09:28:15 AM »
    I have a hand me down computer that I am trying to clean up so I can give to someone else to use.  Currently when I send a web page to someone else, it uses the previous owner's email.  How do I get the email address erased from IE?

    The email address isn't in IE, it's in your email client. Open the email client and delete all old accounts.

    A good idea for all 2nd hand PC's is to do a complete wipe and a clean install of the OS...
